The public is invited to join in a commemoration of the firefighters, paramedics, police officers and other innocent victims whose lives were ended by the tragic terrorist attack of September 11th, 2001.
The Susanville Fire Department is joining with remembrances being held all across the country on Friday. The observance will begin at 6:45a.m. on the lawn at the fire hall at 1505 Main Street.
At 7:00 the group will assemble in front of the flagpole, the Honor Guard will present the colors and there will be a moment of silence and a prayer by Chaplain Ingle. Lassen High School’s newly formed Cadet Corp will also be on hand for the ceremony.
Of the 2,977 people killed in the September 11th attacks, 412 were emergency workers in New York City who responded to the World Trade Center.
