Robert "Bobby" Eustace began his term as president of the Uniformed Firefighters Association Aug. 1 after winning the election to the top post of the union representing more than 8,500 active and 15,000 retired FDNY firefighters. Eustace ran unopposed in a union-wide election that took place in July, the second election in a row in which the union presidency was won by a firefighter who didn't face a challenger.
"I'm happy with the results and I'm excited to hit the ground running," Eustace said in an interview on Monday. "I'm looking to keep up the success of the membership and protect the members. To protect the people who protect New Yorkers."
