VIDEO/PHOTOS: These caped crusaders are on a special mission.
A super team of iconic movie characters dubbed the ‘Humble Heroes of FDNY’ are celebrating 10 years of donning superhero costumes for Big Apple children who need them the most.
The collection of heroic New York City firefighters, NYPD officers and public school teachers have made the rounds to dozens of schools, hospitals and grief camps.
โJust like the [fire] department, itโs always about giving back and stepping up to help out others,โ said firefighter Rob Vogt during a Humble Heroes visit Friday to PS 357R Robert Randall School, a special-needs school in Staten Island.
โWe had a hospital visit last month,โ Vogt recounted in his Superman garb.
โThere were kids in isolation, and we couldnโt necessarily see them, but just seeing us in a window changed their whole day: the nurses told us everything, how grateful they were.โ
