Tonight, 10Sept, the film that was shot by the two
French brothers about the FDNY will air again at 8PM.
This time the main guys the crew filmed are going to be
interviewed about how the job, their lives and emotions have been changed
since that fateful day five years ago.
I for one am going to watch it. You might say why drag up those memories....
Why not?
We must remember what happened.
We as a nation were attacked by soldiers of a foreign army.
What army? The army of Islam, the army of hate, jealousy, of terror.
We were attacked on multiple fronts with only one target being the military
the others were civilian targets and if those brave souls aboard Flight 93 had
not fought back the fourth target would have been either the
White House or our nations Capitol Building.
At the Pentagon our military members there as well as the civilian
employees fought for their lives often giving them up to save another.
The pilots of the F-16s scrambled to intercept Flight 93 were willing to ram the plane with theirs as a means to stop the carnage. I thank God they did not have to.
At the Twin Towers of the WTC people also fought desperate battles for survival. Most won but many, too many lost.
As those survivors made their way out our Brothers and Sisters of the FDNY, NYPD and PAPD made their way in. Most knew that some of them would not return but they went anyway. Why?
Every Fireman, Cop, or EMS provider knows the answer to that...it is what we do...that is who we are.
343 FDNY along with many Cops and EMS did not come out again. Almost 2000..yes TWO-THOUSAND others did not make it either.
For them let us not forget.
As I write this our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines are taking the fight to the homelands of these pricks. The men and women of our Armed Forces are making sacrifices every day to help protect us. Many are dying in the attempt.
For them let us not forget.
Because if those bastards have their way it will happen again, let us not forget.
