As the distance from Sept. 11, 2001, grows, so does the responsibility to preserve its stories. Many firefighters entering the service today know the images, the numbers and the history, but they did not experience the uncertainty, grief and resolve that defined that day and its aftermath. For those who were there, sharing their experiences helps a new generation understand the scale of the response and recognize those whose actions may otherwise fade from view.
This special report brings together firsthand perspectives on what happened that day, how its impact continues to shape the fire service and why preserving these stories still matters 25 years later.
