× On November 2, 2001, the FDNY for the very first time issued six posthumous diplomas to graduated probies. Richard Allen, 31, was one. of them Allen came naturally to a job that helped people. He was a Rockaway Beach lifeguard and a New York City public school substitute teacher before being appointed to the FDNY. Actually, he was hoping being a firefighter meant he could also continue to do the other two.
He was helping civilians escape the lobby of Tower One when it collapsed.

Richie Allen worked for me. He was a NYC Sanitation Worker. One day he came into my office and said, "Chief, I'm quitting this job." I said why would you quit this job? He said, I got called by the Fire Department. I said congratulations. That's the job I wanted. I told him, Good Luck! That was the last time I saw him. Charlie Vaicels Superintendent DSNY -(RETIRED)
