    Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children.

  • Remembering 9/11

    Remembering 9/11

    IMG_20150911_084615825-01[1]14 years after the horrific terrorist attacks of September 11, 2011, 46/49 fire and EMS crews as well as command staff took time to pause and remember those responders who gave their lives. On that fateful day in New York City, 343 FDNY firefighters, 23 NYPD officers, 37 PAPD officers, two FDNY paramedics, nine NY state private paramedics and EMT’s, and one New York Fire Patrol firefighter gave their lives in the line of duty. To this day, emergency responders and members of the public continue to perish due to related illnesses from the NYC incident. The physical and emotional impact of the events that day live long past the actual events themselves. We also remember those civilians/military personnel that were killed in New York City, Shanksville, PA, and the Pentagon. A big “thank you” goes out to Reverend Scott Sager who offered a poem and prayer reading.
