Fire department officials- often called Fire Marshals- inspect houses and buildings for excessive fire hazards- and compliance with existing building and fire codes- such things as extinguishers, sprinkler systems, smoke and direct call fire alarms, etc. as distinct from the usual idea of fire-fighters, the marshals are specially trained also in detective skills and investigate arson crime. In the FDNY they are issued Black .45 automatic pistols- the only Fire dept officials to carry weapons.
