Last week we had an amazing opportunity to attend a ceremony at the Fire Department. Our F.D. is one of two places in all of Nebraska to receive a piece of World Trade Center Steel -
truly an honor.
Two FDNY families escorted the piece of steel from Tower One to present it to the Nebraska City Museum of Firefighting. The ceremony opened with the F.D. Color Guard and Bagpipes - it was a very reverent and moving ceremony.
Enjoy some pictures . . .
{and see if you can pick out our favorite firefighter, two junior firefighters and two reverent Scouts!}

This particular flag, covering the piece of steel from Tower One, was used to cover the bodies of First Responders as they were pulled from the rubble in September, 2001.
A FDNY helmet offered as a gift - 343 signifying the number of lost to FDNY |

In Memory . . . Never Forget |
