  • Zach Coleman NYFD Rescue 4. This rescue was along with 2 two others were destroyed in the collapse of the twin towers on 9/11. They took parts from Rescue 3 and rebuilt Rescue 4 and 5. The only thing they did not touch in the restoration was the back compartments where the men stand going on the call. They left everything there when they got off the truck on 9/11. Both Rescue 4 and 5 are on tour around America.

The most profound loss on that fateful day in 2001 was the loss of family.
For me, this loss would be forever embodied in the words "never forget."

  • Nancy Mamawolf I had the honor of visiting the original Flight 93 memorial 6 months after 9/11. People were stealing the dirt from the crash site. It was crazy. Thankfully they got armed guards to guard the site. This is just one of my photos.
