Bugle Call Saves Lives at New York Military Academy
Fire at the New York Military Academy in Cornwall on the Hudson injures no one, with an estimated loss of 200000. A bugle call rallied 300 pupils and staff from a five story building as cadets and instructors guided students to safety despite flames on the upper floors. Some on the fifth floor were temporarily missing but all were saved. The blaze is linked to an overheated stove or fat boiling over.
