On September 11, 2001, 343 New York City Fire Department (FDNY) firefighters made the ultimate sacrifice while responding to the attacks on the World Trade Center. Each image is a reminder of the sacrifices made that day, and of the lives that continue to be affected by 9/11-related illnesses. Nearly 24 years later, we will never forget the bravery of those who responded. | Leary Firefighters Foundation
