Here’s a throwback from Dennis McGuire, Jr. for #TBT: Let’s take a trip back to January 18th, 1994 — one of the coldest days in Chicago history. The high that day only reached 11 degrees below zero, after a morning low of 21 degrees below, resulting in a daily average temperature of 16 degrees below zero. On the South Side of the city, firefighters were on the scene battling a fire at an apartment building on S. St. Lawrence Avenue, between 8049 and 8059. The blaze was reported as a 2-11, meaning it was a two-alarm fire that had spread to 11 rooms across a four-story structure.

The cold made every task more difficult, and yet they showed incredible dedication and courage. This photo captures a moment from that freezing day, highlighting the bravery of those who risk their lives to protect others. Check out more photos here.
