Pete always wanted a model 24 Smith & Wesson. He had just found one, but I don't think he had the chance to shoot it before 9/11. I still think of him often.

I have the honor to speak of him tonight at our monthly meeting, Sons of the American Revolution. Rest in Peace Lieutenant & know you are not forgotten.
He posted about the S&W on the evening of 9/10. I think it
was found in his locker later.

Hannity and Levin played clips of radio chatter 9/11 today
and Hannity had the NYPD commish at the time on today, too. I didn't know Pete, but I thought of him first when they played those clips and when the commissioner was talking about rolling up to Ground Zero that morning to people jumping out of the towers. At that moment, Pete was probably running up stairs saving people.
Prayed for his family and the thousands of others who didn't get a loved one back that night after listening to both sets of clips. A good friend lost his sister in Tower Two. She was listed as missing for a couple or three weeks before they found enough of her body to ID her with DNA.
It got really dusty a couple of times today.

I remember Capt Martin from the old page. Hoping his widow and sons are doing well. Praying for everyone who lost someone that day.
