One of the most amazing stories from 9-11 that’s been well documented. I highly recommend the documentary narrated by Gweneth Paltrow....yes- I know- but she does a great job.

Welles was also a volunteer firefighter in Rockland County- Nyack i believe

President Trump to Posthumously Award the [...]

Stupid headline! President Trump is still alive and kicking!

President Trump can't do anything "posthumously" as long as he is still alive!

(I know, I know... But still!)

How I’m only now hearing about this brave man astounds me.

The msm can collectively suck a bully stick.

So fitting. His example calls to all of us. Reminds me of the story (and death) of 76 year-old engineering professor and holocaust survivor Liviu Librescu who gave his life to save his students during a school shooting by blocking the door so the shooter could not gain entrance while his students escaped from the window. A hero’s death is not the worst way to go by far.
