Moving video about a hero of 9/11

The young man in this story is first cousin to dear friend of ours here in Gilford and Mink Island.

Little hard to watch, but as the 10Th anniversary of that horrible day approaches, it's good to honor the hero's and be reminded of their sacrifice.

What a true American hero. Why do the good die so young? His family must be so proud of their son. What a tragic loss. I wish everyone could have been saved---including him.

Thanks for posting this. A very nice video, especially for a fellow Eagle.

While there is not a nice video, I share a similar story about a good friend. He attended our wedding, and we spent many happy hours together on a softball field. He went back in 5 times...never made it out the last.
