🇺🇸 WE WILL NEVER FORGET — SEPTEMBER 11, 2001

Today, Robertson County Emergency Management Agency joins our nation in remembering the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001.

We honor the firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMS personnel, dispatchers, military members, and countless ordinary Americans who demonstrated extraordinary courage in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

We also remember the families who lost loved ones and the first responders whose lives were forever changed by their service in the days, months, and years that followed.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to remember the lives lost, honor the heroes who answered the call, and reflect on the unity and resilience our nation showed in the aftermath.

May we never forget their sacrifice.
September 11, 2001 — Never Forgotten. 🇺🇸
