This is a beautiful story about how mariners stepped up and rescued hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers.

Another video link, this one about Rick Rescorla, who many old Freepers have heard of. He perished in the fall of the WTC, but not ‘til he evacuated all of his co-workers. Many of them heard him singing “Men of Harlech” to hearten them as he went back up the stairs again.
