Today,
we're
honoring
the
first
responders
that
we're
lost
near
911.
It's
a
it's,
a
remembrance
of
the
343
firefighters,
60
police
officers
and
teen
EMTs
that
were
lost
on
911.
This
quan
is
110
floors,
which
was
the
height
of
the
World
Trade
Center.
We
carry
each
carry
a
picture
with
a
person's
name,
carry
them
to
the
top,
because
that
day,
they
weren't
able
to
make
it
to
the
top.
So
we
take
them
home.
Mary.

There's
40
of
these
throughout
the
country,
Charlotte,
is
a
great
city,
will
want
to
showcase
it.
It's
an
important
part
of
our
brother
and
sisterhood
as
firefighters
and
police
officers,
to
understand
what
happened
that
day
and
to
learn
from
it
and
to
honor
those
who
gave
doing
exactly
what
we
do
every
day.

A
Year,
it
actually
gets
tougher
as
time
goes
on.
I
start
remembering
more
and
more
each
year.
I
actually
sort
of
equate
sounds
are
very
particular
because
sounds
take
us
back
to
that
incident
that
day,
whether
it
be
an
alarm
on
an
aircraft
going
off
thinking
that
it's
a
firefighter
that
we
might
be
able
to
find
very
difficult
emotional
thing
to
think
about
many
of
those
bell
rings
or
people
that
I
knew.
Personally,
I
would
spend
weeks
go
on
pull
for
me
personally.
That
bell
signifies
a
soul
going
to
heaven.
