To honor the lives lost and those who aided in rescue on September 11, 2001, USG employees had the opportunity to participate in the annual Patriot Day Remembrance Walk this morning at locations across North America. The annual event is now in its 11th year and was established by our employee resource group, Defend the Rock. The group's support of Patriot Day honors individuals impacted on this day 23 years ago, and stems from its mission to build relationships among current and former military service members at USG locations across the country.
