More 9/11...






Here are a few more from the museum...

Photo #4 to me is a very powerfull photo. It is a photo of TL 118 responding to the trade center. Just looking at the photo, I can't imagine what the crew was thinking coming across what I believe to be the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhatten to the trade center.

At that point, If I can remember, all the bridges were shut down except for emergency vehicles. The Tower is the only vehicle on the bridge. Just being the lone rig responding into a call like that...

The entire crew of Tower Ladder 118 was lost on 9/11/01...

The last post of the day coming up will be a Skywatch post...

Woody 9/11 was indeed a dark day. I remember hearing about the first tower on the news and went home with my wife and turned on the TV and watched the whole event unfold on CNN, literally before my eyes.
It was one of the most diabolical things I have ever seen - I still find it hard to believe.

It was also the day my son left home to become a professional pilot.

Hi agian Woody, I have signed in under a different site - my sky watch is done on the Max Files as Max-e. Thanks for the visit
