Dave Russell was in NYC on 9/11, responding with Engine 62, Ladder 32 to the World Trade Center. Dave and his fellow firefighters had to commandeer a city bus, and drive towards the scene without a proper fire engine or a clear idea of what they would be arriving to. (16:51)

Chaz and AJ were taking calls from the Tribe, who shared their stories from 9/11. Alicia in Oxford remembers her brother calling her on his way to the Oxford airport, which was considered to be a safe option for potentially important aircraft to land. (48:15)
