Congratulations to Phil D’Agostino and Brock Kennedy, 9-1-1 dispatchers from Watertown who received awards from the National Emergency Number Association (America’s 9-1-1 association) who were on duty to protect the people of Watertown and the first responders at risk during the bombing and the pursuit and capture of the Tsarnaev brothers after the Marathon bombing.  The Watertown dispatchers, like their law enforcement and fire service colleagues, displayed the professionalism and passion that was common throughout the Boston area.

D’Agostino and Kennedy attended NENA’s national 9-1-1 conference in Charlotte in mid-June to receive some much deserved national recognition for the fine work of the Watertown dispatchers.
