“Today is not just a story of loss, it is also a story of great American courage." Gen. Dan Caine honors the Americans who ran toward danger on 9/11, from first responders climbing the towers, to those entering the smoke and fire at the Pentagon, and the 40 passengers and crew aboard Flight 93. 25 years later, Caine says the story of September 11 is not only one of devastating loss, but of "great American courage" and selfless service when the country faced unimaginable danger. "They chose to act for strangers they would never meet... In the moment of greatest danger, Americans moved towards one another." ▻
