As some of you already know, I was in NY during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11th.  Since I was still a NY State licensed EMT, and a Commissioned Officer, I took a lead role in the rescue assistance mounted by the Academy.  During the course of that assistance I found myself at Ground Zero.  It was quite a thing to experience and it moved me a great deal.  I have posted a poem here. The words have been swimming around in my head since that day at ground zero, and I finally wrote them down.

    I have posted some of the pictures that I have from the rescue efforts.  Most of the pictures were taken by people on my crew.  There are also some interesting political cartoons.
