9/11 firefighters tower climb

Airmen and civilian firefighters stand at attention in front of the Eglin Air Force Base control tower Sept 11 prior to their mission. Eglin’s firefighters ascended the 11-story tower carrying ribbons with the names of the 343 firefighters killed Sept. 11, 2001. When each name was delivered to the top of the tower it was read aloud. The event ended on top of the tower with participants hanging the ribbons over the balcony on either side of an American Flag. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
