Petition to the President of the United States to bestow America's Medal of Freedom Award on New York City's Tower 2 Lifesaver Hero ..RICK RESCORLA..
ON SEPT 11TH IN SPITE OF BEING TOLD HIS BUILDING WAS NOT IN DANGER, HE IMPLEMENTED THE EVACUATION PLAN HE HAD DEVELOPED FOR HIS FIRM, MORGAN STANLEY. AS A DIRECT RESULT OF HIS EFFORTS THAT DAY AND HIS QUICK ACTION, OVER 2,600 EMPLOYEES WERE SAVED. MR. RESCORLA WAS LAST SEEN GOING UP TO RESCUE PEOPLE WHO WERE UNABLE TO GET DOWN.
HIS ACTIONS REFLECT THE VERY BEST ABOUT AMERICA,
ITS CITIZENS AND ITS DREAMS.

[Jeff Head]

Signature number 486 from that petition reads:

I have read the story of Mr. Rescorla, both his heroic actions in Nam and regarding his actions on 9-11. He had the forsight to see what was coming (since the earlier bombing of the WTC he had been preparing for this day) and in the highest tradition of citizenship and valor, he was prepared not only for himself, but for those whose security he was hired to look after. He undoubetdly saved hundreds of lives and went back into the building to insure that his duty was completely and faithfully carried out to every single individual in his charge before concerning himself with his own safety. As a result of his commitment to duty and his fellow citizens, he made the ultimate sacrifice and is richly deserving of this honor. I completely support the effort of this petition.
