The National September 11 Memorial & Museum held its annual commemoration ceremony to observe the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attack.
Steel recovered from the World Trade Center is part of the ship named after the 9/11 hero who served in the Marines, the Coast Guard and the NYPD.
Firefighter Kenneth J. Fusco will not only be remembered for his bravery on 9/11, but for his lifetime of service, mentorship and brotherhood.
For the past 24 years there have been six moments of silence, to mark the times when planes struck in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, and when towers fell, followed by six tolls of a bell.
A steel beam salvaged from the ruins of the World Trade Center in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks will be taken across the U.S. to commemorate the lives of fallen heroes.
NYRR announced their collaboration with the 9/11 Memorial & Museum on Monday, to produce the race which will take place on Saturday, July 11, in Central Park.
