I work at a Tennessee Prison as the Fire and Safety Officer. We were watching the local news when the planes hit the towers. I thought of all the people who never had a chance to get out.When they started showing all the emergency service workers responding without concern for their personal safety I was greatly touched and reminded why I chose this profession. You see I am also a volunteer firefighter and EMT and many times we place ourselves in harms way to save a life. I lost 343 brothers that day and I'll remember it for the rest of my life.All gave some- some gave all. God bless you brothers.
