I am cross posting this from a 9/11 rememberence thread.....

RIP freeper BCM...aka Battlion Chief Mike Moran NYFD. You and other freepers may know him by his brother who was the man who told Hillary to kiss his royal Irish ass at the memorial event.

I will always remember flying about a month after 9/11, Standing in front of the ticket counter early in the morning at sea tac airport.

As I’m standing at the counter I can feel the floor rumbling and shaking because the luggage trams are running beneath the ticket counter.

It is actually shaking me up-and-down and at that exact moment the public address system begins paging “Mike Moran pick up the courtesy phone.”

I got choked up and almost lost it because it felt like God was sending me a message.

The ticket agent was looking at her computer monitor and asked me if I had a seat preference just seconds aftet this.

My reply was related to the fear we all had that 9/11 could happen again which is why I said “wherever I can be of most use.”

She looked up at me, digested that statement while staring at a broad shouldered fit man, and placed me in the first row behind 1st class, on the aisle.

This was before I became a police officer but still had that Do Your Duty mindset.

Rest In Peace BCM and thank you for your service and sacrifice.
