We remember and honor those who died on Sept. 11, especially the fire fighters and other first responders who sacrificed their lives in service to others.

As we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice on 9/11, and those who succumbed to 9/11-related illnesses, we also celebrate the enduring legacies of their families. Many children chose to follow in the footsteps of their parents, taking the oath to serve in tribute to their loved ones. Read some of their stories ??

Inspired by their parents’ legacy, a new generation of IAFF members are answering the call in New York City. Watch ??: youtu.be/Hq23hK8bSo4
