Not only did Wildwood Fire Department swear in their first female firefighter, they swore in a second generation fire chief!

Wildwood 365 says this is only the second time in 104 years that a second generation chief has carried on the title.

When Chief Daniel Speigel rose to take his oath of office from Garrabrant, Speigel’s family, including his father, retired Wildwood Fire Chief Floyd Speigel, stood next to him as he was promoted from deputy fire chief.

Wildwood 365 says that Firefighter Christina Sacco took her oath of office as well.

Sacco, a lifelong resident of the city, is the daughter of Wildwood Fire Department Capt. Aldo Sacco and Lea Sacco, who served as a part-time volunteer firefighter in the city and now serves as an EMT in the borough of Wildwood Crest.

Congratulations to both!
