Two-Hatters

Two-hatter firefighter and soldier
Paul Combs/Drawn by Fire

The term two-hatter has traditionally been used in the fire service to recognize firefighters who work for a career fire department, as well as volunteer for another. However, on this Veterans Day, I would like to recognize another two-hatter – the men and women who serve as firefighters in their communities, and serve our country as warriors here at home and abroad. For those of you who are currently serving or have served in the past – THANK YOU!
