They went on four planes that morning of Sept. 11, 2001. Some going to work, making plans, hoping the kids were OK in school. Some were going on a vacation or visiting family or going to give a business presentation. They didn’t know they were going to die that day. They didn’t know they were going to be heroes.
They were on duty that morning—patrolling the streets, checking fire and rescue equipment. Always ready to protect, serve and save. They heard, they saw, they didn’t hesitate—on duty, off duty and volunteers. They didn’t know they were going to die that day. They didn’t know they were going to be heroes.
We can never forget. We will never forget.
