Edward James Griffiths (1891-1980) was an Australian fire fighter, veteran of the Gallipoli campaign and a three-time premiership-winning rugby league player with the Eastern Suburbs club. ==Career and war service==
Born in Pyrmont, New South Wales in 1891, Griffiths joined the fire service as a Brigades Cadet Corp at just sixteen years of age and his exploits since that time are legendary. Current station commander of the ‘D’ Platoon in the NSW Fire Brigade recalls Griffiths as a tough fearless man who always led by example, describing him as ''“Our greatest fire fighter”''......''”A legend in the true sense of the word”''. In 1948 Griffiths was given the highest honour of any fire fighter when he was promoted to Chief Officer of the NSW Fire Brigades. A veteran of the First World War, Griffiths, a member of an Australian artillery unit, served in Egypt and Gallipoli.
