(The Day Of 911)
Ladies and Gentlemen as we sit here in sadness, shock, horror and anger, I want us all to remember that we as Americans can't give up. Not in the name of "fair play" "political correctness" or, God forbid, defeat.
This is for ALL Americans on this day that we ALL suffered.... but mostly to the victims.... the ones who live the ones who have given their lives and lost their lives... and to the ones left behind.
The Day Of 911
We all cried, we all hurt
On the day of 911
When people died, and terror surged
Who knew this day would come?
In fear, in anger we made the cry
"SOMETHING MUST BE DONE!!"
Oh, why is it that only now
We've beat the battle drum?
America, let hope ne'er fail
Hold your heads up high
For we WILL fight and then PREVAIL
So hear the battle cry.
Remember this, our enemy
Who thinks that he has won...
We WILL not flit nor run away
Or forget the day 9 11!
God Bless America
The 343
Ask any firefighter, and he will say
And the Brothers all agree;
We know that day, and it won't go away,
When we lost our 343.
Where were you when the Towers came down,
The cry will be heard through the years;
Where were you when the Twin Towers fell,
And we realized our worst fears.
The old man asked of the young boy he met,
The lad looked up and answered politely,
"My daddy's a fireman, and he died that day,
But I still say a prayer for him nightly."
The old man moved on, and he found a young girl,
And he asked the same question of her,
She answered so slow,"I don't think I know,
For you see, I wasn't born yet sir."
But ask any firefighter, and he will know,
The day, the time, and the year;
For those of us who fight smoke and fire
And have no time for fear.
We know that day, and it won't go away,
When we lost our 343.
So when you see a firetruck speeding by,
Manned by the men who fight the fight,
Or you hear a wailing siren, in the middle of the night,
It seems so far away, on some lonely thoroughfare,
Pause for just a moment, and think a silent prayer...
THIS IS FOR CHARLESTON SC
REMEMBRANCE
Goodbye can not be said to those who do not leave.
We cannot allow you to go.
Our hearts are full of the images left to us,
in the wake of your passing,
but we will not let them fade
into the nothingness of oblivion!
Your gift, the price that you paid for us,
is boldly emblazoned in our corridors
of loving memory.
There is no understanding,
no rational grasp of the dark horror,
that transported you from among us.
There is only the intense discomfort
at recalling the helpless rage
of watching you depart.
We will not say goodbye!
Nor will we welcome the efforts
of those who would!
You are indelibly imprinted on our hearts,
on the hearts of the nations of reason,
and so will you remain.
HEROS ONLY DIE WHEN THEY ARE FORGOTTEN
As long as you remember,
And, you keep him in your heart,
As long as you remember,
Then, you'll never be apart
A hero only dies when he's forgotten.
A hero only dies when we forget.
So, I promise to remember,
And, to keep him in my heart.
As long as I remember,
Then, We'll never be apart.
A Firefighter's Pledge
I promise concern for others.
A willingness to help all those in need.
Promise courage - courage to face and conquer my fears.
Courage to share and endure the ordeal of those who need me.
I promise strength - strength of heart to bear
whatever burdens might be placed upon me.
Strength of body to deliver to safety
all those placed within my care.
I promise the wisdom to lead,
the compassion to comfort,
and the love to serve unselfishly
whenever I am called.
Firefighter's Prayer
When I am called to duty, God, wherever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some life whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child before it is too late, or save an
older person from the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert and hear the weakest shout, and quickly and efficiently
to put the fire out. I want to fill my calling and to give the best in me,
to guard my every neighbor and protect his property.
And if according to my fate I am to lose my life this day,
Please bless with your protecting hand my family this I pray.
Can We Make It On Time
The pagers go off, calling us out.
The dispatcher gives the address, with a loud shout.
I jump out of bed as fast as I can.
Grab my shoes and my keys as they page us again.
I go out to my truck, plug in the dash light.
Cause somewhere in town is a fire I must fight.
Wipeing the sleep from my eyes, I see a bright glow in the distance.
A policeman yells over the radio "Code 3, I need assistance"
He said there is screaming, coming from inside.
I think to myself, someone is trapped, but alive.
The pain they must feel, I can't imagine the scare.
I see the station up the road, the chief's already there.
I pray to God "Please let us get there in time,
To save an unknown life, Lord if you must, instead take mine."
I speed up a little faster, but still driving safe.
Still praying to God that I won't be too late.
I finally get to the station, put on my turn out gear.
The chief starts the fire engine and yells "We're outta here!"
The sirens sound off, the red strobe are so bright,
I pray once again,"Lord watch over us tonight."
I suit up for action putting on the S.C.B.A.
The chief makes the comment "Boys the Devil wants to play!"
We arrive on scene, not ever thinking one time,
"Why am I doing this?" or "Why do I put my life on the line?"
As we observe the silence and think "this person is dead."
All of a sudden I see the shadow of a small head.
Looking real hard, trying to figure out what it is.
Oh dear Lord, it can't be. It's just a small kid.
Then all of sudden the head moved, "this kid's still alive!"
So I try to reassure her by yelling "Everything's gonna be alright!"
I always said "I'd die if it would save another life."
But never once did i think that it could happen tonight.
I run to the front door, Kick it open and run in.
Praying once more,"God, we can't let the Devil win."
Crawling on the floor, moving slowly toward the crying.
I noticed a strong smell and loud hissing. Oh No! It's a gas line!
I knew I had to hurry so I got up and ran towards the cry
I found that little girl, she could barely open her eyes.
The smoke was thick and very hot and getting ready to flash.
I took off my jacket, wrapped her in it and gave her my air mask.
I heard a firefighter outside say, "The roof's coming down,
if they are getting out alive, they better get out right now."
I grabed the young girl as if she were a football,
tucked her in close and ran to the window.
The chief ran up and took her from my arm
My other one's broken, but at least she is out of the way of harm.
Then I remembered the gas line. So I too climbed out the window.
And sure enough, that gas line did blow.
The explosion knocked me down, but I got right back up on my feet.
Took no more than 3 steps, then I hit my knees.
Through my blurred vision, I watched that little girl,
with her mom and dad all crying, having a face with a smile.
She then walked over to me and grabbed me by the hand.
She said isn a soft sweet voice "Thank you Mr. Fireman."
We put out the fire, got ready to go home one more time.
I helped roll the hoses, thanking God that nobody died.
And thank you Dear Lord for letting us be on time.
A Volunteer Firefighter's Prayer
Lord I thank you for surrounding me with the most sincere
And bravest of individuals;
Grant us fortitude so that we may continue to assist one another
As we carry out our duties.
I ask that you guard my fellow Firefighters and I
Whenever and wherever we face danger.
Protect us against natural incidents, careless or evil acts of others, and,
May we be blessed with progressive leaders, exceptional training
and protective equipment; and most advanced technology that can be afforded.
May I continue to receive the generous support of my family
As I carry out this endeavor.
Lord, if you should call me to your side while I'm in service,
Please grant my family incredible strength and understanding,
And may you also grant them comfort and the full support of the community
In their time of need.

Nation Of Survivors
In the bright September morning without warning to us all
A few thousand lives were shattered and we watched two buildings fall
And a billion souls felt empty, and the flags at half-mast fly
In the memory of the innocent which didn't have to die
We've lost brothers, sisters, cousins. We've lost family and friends
But we've made the choice not to forget their lives and tragic ends
Though we've had our share of troubles we have put them all aside
As a nation grieves we find ourselves defending them with pride
We're a nation of survivors, with one heart we share a tear
But we live to serve the memory, not giving in to fear.
Though they try to take security with the things they've done and said
All their acts of inhumanity bring unity instead.
So we stand here as a family. One heart,
one soul, one voice. We are challenged by
this moment, and united here by choice.

This is a group where we can talk about the 9/11 and vent out on what is going on with this world.
September 11th poem
A normal day as autumn sings
Then evil flew with silver wings
And England froze in disbelief
Like statues wearing masks of grief
Broken lionhearts roar in pain
Salt water falls instead of rain
And we were bound in helpless crying
Whilst flesh of our flesh lay dying
A sea of tears with waves so pure
To break upon a new york shore
Firefighters are those crazy people who run into a burning building when all others are running out.
Firefighters are those people who wake up in the middle of the night to help an old lady, who fell out of bed.
Firefighters are those people who work on half eaten meals because someone needed their help.
Firefighters are those people who have a second family that seems just like a first family.
Firefighters are those people who never usually get thanked for doing such a good job.
Firefighters are those people who have to deal with people dying and people getting hurt.
Firefighters are those people who have hearts bigger than the whole universe.
Firefighters are those people who are always there in a moments notice when someone needs help.
Firefighters are those people who may seem scary to little kids.
Firefighters are those heroes that little kids always say that they want to be when they grow up.
Firefighters are those people who are the unsung heroes.
Firefighters are those people who very rarely get a "Thank You," but when they do it is always welcome.
Firefighters are those people who are just always there
Firefighters are those that lie their life on the line everyday for others.
Firefighters are those people who are never selfish.
Firefighters are those that are brave.
Firefighters are those who go into a building to rescue a brother, without even taking in the consequences that lie ahead.
Firefigters are those who are at once the most fortunate and the least fortunate of men.
