Make way for the ladies, gentlemen.

Male firefighters aren't the only public servants burning up the pages of the FDNY's Annual Calendar of Heroes this year.

For the first time, the city agency is selling two calendars as one pack: inside you'll find the standard version featuring 12 hunky men of the fire department and a new one featuring 12 crush-worthy women.

(Note: this isn't to say the FDNY calendar has never included any female employees: in 2014, then-11-year veteran Danae Mines was the first woman to claim a month for herself.) 

The 2017 calendars are also the first to include emergency medical technicians and paramedics among the usual firefighting models.

If you want to meet some of the models when you pick up your copy, you have until 2 p.m. to stop by Herald Square in Midtown this Friday.

You can also buy your calendar, for $17.95, online here

Proceeds from the sales support the FDNY Foundation, the agency's non-profit outfit working to educate city residents about fire safety and offer FDNY employees professional development, training and education.  

Before you make your purchase, you can check out some of the ladies making their calendar debuts below:
