This post from Dennis McGuire, Jr. for #TBT takes us back to a brutal winter day on January 18, 1994. On that frigid morning, the temperature plummeted to minus 21 degrees, and by midday, the high only managed to reach 11 degrees below zero. The daily average temperature was a bone-chilling minus 16. It was one of those days when the cold felt like it could freeze your breath in midair. Meanwhile, on Chicago’s South Side, firefighters were working tirelessly to contain a fire at an apartment building located at 8049-59 S. St. Lawrence. The blaze, which started in a 2-11 unit, spread through a four-story structure, testing the resilience of the local fire department under extreme weather conditions. Dennis McGuire, Jr. captured this historic moment with his camera, offering a glimpse into the challenges faced by first responders during one of the coldest days on record. His photo, titled "Firefighters battle fire in frigid weather," highlights the dedication and bravery of those who risk their lives to protect others, even in the harshest conditions.

(1) SG2 Welding wire has the following advantages:
1. Low welding cost: its cost is only 40~50% of that of submerged arc welding and manual arc welding.
2. High production efficiency: its productivity is 1 to 4 times that of manual arc welding.
3. Easy to operate: open arc, unlimited thickness of workpiece, all-position welding and downward welding.
4. High crack resistance of the weld: the weld has low hydrogen and less nitrogen content.
