On this very tragic day 19 years ago, at OPMCG, we ask everyone to take time out of your day today to remember all of those who perished – 2,997, including 343 firefighters, 23 New York City police officers, 37 Port Authority officers and 55 military personnel. Confronted with certain death to save the lives of others, we salute the police, firefighters, EMTs, soldiers, chaplains, co-workers, the heroes on the four hijacked jets. God Bless America. The Land of the Free.
