The voice you hear playing in the background of this page, is that of former radio personality Jack
Race for the WHUC Radio News Broadcast on Tuesday, January 23rd, 1979. In the vintage broadcast, Race pays
tribute to Volunteer Firefighters from the City of Hudson, and mutual aid companies from Greenport, Claverack and Stottville
that fought multiple fires in the City of Hudson on Monday, January 22nd, 1979, set by a 17 year-old arsonist who would eventually
be apprehended. Numerous firefighters put their lives and personal safety on the line that day and everytime
they answer an alarm. These brave men and women don't do it for pay, but instead, they do it for the "pride"
they get in serving the communities in which they live and work. Thank you to James Briscoe for contributing the
tape from which this soundclip was produced.
