This was a very memorable 1 story as we were covering a fire in San Juan, Puerto Rico. We ran into this very humble 2 firefighter. His name is Lieutenant 3 Angel Cresco and he was in charge of leading a team of 5 firefighters into the flames, into the fire during the fire when flames were shooting hundreds of feet into the air, he was responsible for going in and shutting down five valves from broken pipelines 4 that were dumping gasoline into the fire making it worse. So they did it in a very courageous 5 manner. You can say he and his man saved an entire city, the capital of Puerto Rico – San Juan, which without their help, it would have been a disaster. But you would know it if you met him, he was just very humble, very unassuming and just very proud of being a firefighter and very proud of being able to do his job well.  As far as some concerned, he is a real hero.
