To me, the best way to put all the 9/11 hoopla to bed was to shoot a sparsely attended ceremony this morning that mostly comprised of first-responders paying respects to the fellow 411 fire and police personnel who died in the attacks on September 11, 2001.
A great point was made in the remarks this morning: The Master Chief of the local Jr. ROTC mentioned that for all his life he had been thanking members of the military for their service, but it wasn’t until recently that it dawned on him that he needed to thank police officers and firefighters who put their lives on the line for the public day in and day out, right here on our own soil.
At the next opportunity, everyone should take the time to thank a police officer or firefighter for their service to their community and their country.
