September 11, 2001 - Remembered

 

It is fitting that as we remember the military men and women who died in service to America, we also remember, as well, the first casualties of the War on Terrorism. They too, are American heroes who died in the line of duty.

As we honor our soldiers in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard, let us also pause to remember other American heroes in special uniforms who died trying to help the first victims of this war - our country's first responders - firefighters, police officers and EMTs.

Remember our heroes in your prayers - and all our servicemen and servicewomen serving our great nation around the world - May God bless us all!
