A Fire Department of New York (FDNY) Ladder Company 3 fire truck, which was partially destroyed in the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, is lowered into an opening in the World Trade Center site below ground level, where it will become part of the permanent installation exhibit in the 9/11 Memorial and Museum in New York July 20, 2011. The 9/11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center site will open on the 10 year anniversary of the attacks on September 11, 2011.
Wait? They BURIED a fire truck?
(I guess I’d have to have been there to understand.)
Wait, that's not true, I lost thousands of my fellow Americans and that's enough reason to weep.
Wow. Still causes tears.
Thanks for posting.

Both towers had already been hit, yet not collapsed, and they were callingin FDNY companies form all over the city. One company, from Brooklyn, was riding over the Brooklyn Brideg, towards the towers ( burning in the background). All men on the truck were killed.
For me, an incredible image..
