Hello John,
Today marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001.
That morning, 2,977 people were killed in the attacks on New York, the
Pentagon, and Flight 93. At the World Trade Center, hundreds of first
responders died while trying to save others, including 343 New York
firefighters and 71 law enforcement officers.
In the weeks and months that followed, thousands of rescue, recovery, and
cleanup workers served at Ground Zero under dangerous conditions.
Today, I’d like to share a story from someone who was there, one of my
colleagues at CVA, Strategic Director John Byrnes.
John helped with rescue efforts as a National Guardsman. Later, he fought in
Iraq and Afghanistan, continuing his service to his country.
He shared his reflections on that tragic day — and the decades that followed,
which you can watch below:

Why it matters: Stories like John’s help us remember 9/11 with gratitude and
honesty.
They remind us what service costs, why those who step forward have unique
voices, and why America’s leaders must make decisions worthy of their sacrifice.
I hope you’ll join me today in remembering those we lost and honoring the men
and women who answered the call when America needed them most.
For America,
John Vick
Executive Director
