Today’s Focus Will be towards the events at the WTC. We have a great opportunity to host this piece of history right here in NC. This truck was a first responder to that event, were it’s crew perished and the truck restored. Not everyone can go to N.Y. to visit Ground Zero, so we have arranged to bring it to you- to EDUCATE, to HONOR, to REMEMBER
FDNY RESCUE FDNY Rescue Companies are composed of the elite, highly and specially trained, most experienced members of the New York Fire Department. A Rescue Company is tasked with responding to and dealing with specialized fire and rescue incidents that are beyond the scope and duties of a standard Engine or Ladder Company. Rescue Companies operate Rescue Trucks, colloquially known as "tool boxes on wheels", which carry a wide variety of specialized tools and equipment to aide in operations at technical rescues, collapse/confined space rescues, water/dive rescues, high-angle/below-grade rescues, etc. They respond to all fires within their response district as well. Rescue 1 operates in Manhattan, Rescue 2 in Brooklyn, Rescue 3 in the Bronx and north Manhattan (above 125th street), Rescue 4 in queens, and Rescue 5 in Staten Island.

First report was a small plane crashed into the WTC When the second plane crashed we knew that everything that we know would never be the same. People were being evacuated out of the city. All mass transit(subway’s / buses) was stopped. All the bridges and tunnels were closed. People were running, screaming, crying, trying to call loved ones….
