9/11: One City Remembers

  • RiversideTV, the City of Riverside’s in-house television production studio, has produced a documentary film honoring those who perished in the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States while paying tribute to Riverside’s own Urban Search & Rescue CA Task Force 6 (CA TF6) who engaged in search and rescue efforts in New York City immediately following the tragedy.
    Through rare interviews, archival film footage, and many never-before-seen photographs, members of CA TF6 recount their deeply personal and profoundly moving recollections of service and duty on “The Pile” in the wake of unspeakable horror.
    Listen in as family members tell of uncertainty, worry, anxiety and, finally, joy as the team returned from their 11-day trip and is embraced by the Riverside community. The 105-minute film also touches upon the many challenges team members faced upon their return.
    The FEMA Urban Search & Rescue Team is one of only 28 in the country and has been sponsored by the Riverside City Fire Department since 1992.
    “One of the most in-depth peeks yet inside the private world of the FEMA US&R team community and how they operate. Hear stories of hope and inspiration spring up from turmoil and grief, witness the very best that our Nation can be” said Tim Roche, RiversideTV producer and filmmaker. “A truly revealing look behind the scenes as a 60-member team faced with stark realities and painful visages is still buoyed by a grateful people throughout”.
    RiversideTV can be viewed locally on Charter Spectrum channel 3, AT&T channel 99, and Frontier channel 21. Riverside TV is also available at WatchRiverside.com and / cityofriverside . The station broadcasts 24 hours a day 7 days a week

    Native Jersey girl, my husband was there that morning and I was 7 months pregnant. I was lucky, he made it home. 22 years later I still cry my heart out, pain from my soul for all those lost, for the way life used to be. We lived 10 minutes from the GW Bridge. I dropped to my knees and cried that morning, I couldn't reach my husband, I truly thought I was going to have our baby alone. I finally heard from him at 3pm and I begged him to never go back to the city again. I think all of us can agree, life has never been the same for those of us that were here for that day... and it never will be. My son was born that November. Over the years, I've tried telling him about that day, but it doesn't seem to affect him (thank God). I suppose it's like learning about a past war in history class, you know it's terrible, but it doesn't have the emotional impact that it did on those who were there. 22 years tomorrow... and I still cry like the day it happened. God bless....

    I force myself to watch videos and documentaries of the 9/11 events on a relatively frequent basis, so I don’t forget. I was 39 years old on that day, and even this many years afterwards, it isn’t uncommon to get emotional reliving the day. In 2001 I really had no appreciation for NYC culturally, but watching how the citizens responded changed all of my preconceived negative images. The bravery of the FDNY and NYPD is indescribable. They will forever be in my prayers.

      I do the same thing, every year now.
      Although, I was only 11 at the time. Even as a Canadian, living near Vancouver and about to start my Tuesday of grade 6.. It was still the biggest, non-natural disaster to happen in my lifetime, and relatively so close to home. Being on my own continent was such a huge thing, because wars and fighting were always an 'overseas problem'.
      And instead of getting up and going straight to school, my mom sat me down in front of the Tv and made sure I witnessed the world shift.
      I always had a strange feeling of connection to the event, having witnessed it myself. And after hearing at least a thousand first hand accounts of various perspectives, as well as the air traffic recordings, etc.. I just have SUCH respect and admiration for all involved. All who died, all who survived, all who volunteered, or rescued people. Those especially who sacrificed themselves.
      Even at the age I am now, being 34 years old, I still get that same feeling when I hear a new telling, from a new face, and find a new hero to admire within the destruction of that day.
      RIP to all of them.
      & God bless all those still surviving.

    I watched the 2nd plane hit the South Tower -- I was in 9th grade Algebra 1A. 😔 I remember seeing all of those people in the North Tower hanging out the windows waving tablecloths, clothes, etc begging & pleading for help that would never come (that couldn't come).. & watching people jump was horrific & absolutely broke my heart. 💔 I've always noticed that the people in the North Tower that were hanging out of the windows were there for a while, but you don't see them anymore right before the building collapses, like at 5:36. When I was younger I didn't get it, but now I do... They weren't there because they'd either jumped (or fell) or succumbed to the smoke/fire before the building came down. That part has always bothered me the most for some reason..?? I still to this day feel so sorry for them, that they had no choice but to die.

And afterwards, many of the original iron workers came to help with the staggering job of cleanup.

Real Heroes do NOT wear capes, they wear badges, they wear wedding bands, they carry their children, they serve others in the skies, they work in hospitals, drive EMS trucks, ambulances, they are those who pray and hold the hands of those hurting and lost, even to the furry feet that walk in debris to try to find that one precious person still missing.
    Those who enlisted to avenge the lives stolen in a act of cowardice by absolute demonic, evil 'people'
    You All are the heroes. The faces in this documentary. This is what a hero looks like.

      @@elaineread15 yes, avenge the lives of their families that were slaughtered, if you can't understand that, you truly have a heart problem! Shame on you. I would rather be distasteful (in YOUR opinion) concerning people willing to lay down their lives on behalf of their loved ones and seeking JUSTICE (is that a better word for you?) however they can get it, than to see things through your eyes. Your attitude is part of what is wrong. In EVERY WAR, one side or another, is avenging, such as 9/11 .. we were attacked and rather than sit on it we AVENGED the deaths of innocent people. I would hate to be your family or have to depend on you to protect mine if you feel this way. Your choice of wording doesn't justify your comment. You really have a sad heart and THAT is distasteful!

    On September 11, 2001 I was at the time working in a warehouse distribution center in Richmond Virginia, and I was heading to the break room to take my break when all of a sudden, I heard other employees in the break room yell, "Oh my god!!" , or "Oh no!!" and so as I walked in the door of the break room, I finally saw with my own eyes as it happened on TV morning news the second plane hit the second tower. I was like OMG!!!! And I sat down in one of the chairs that was available, because most of the employees were all in the break room watching this as it happens. We were all so devistated at what we saw! One employee spoke up and said, I bet it's Terrorists! He said America as we know it and as it happens is being attacked! All of us were so devistated! Our hearts went out to the loved ones loss that day! Some of us had tears in our eyes upon watching it as it happened on TV that day. After I went back to work, I couldn't get it out of my head of what I actually witnessed on TV news that morning! It took me a long time to finally get over it. Even to this day, my heart still goes out to those who lost their loved ones. 😥❤❤ 🙏🙏 But on that day of my workplace, we were all in shock! Why in the world that preacher would say that people were angry at God?? 😳 No, no, no, no, no!!! God had nothing to do with it! There's evil people who also live in the world and the enemy which is Satan influences people to do evil work! I know this because I really stury my bible twice a day, every day and I attend church often as I can and I have been a Christian since 2006! That's 18 years! God would NOT cause such things to happen! Since the very begining of time and creation, Satan has been creating chaos ever since he fell from heaven and 1/3 of the angels went with him and as a result they are considered demons! Satan influences people to do evil things!! Not God! God is a loving, merciful, kind God! And Jesus did say in his word;
    “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). As we remain in Him, we will have our peace no matter what troubles come our way. Believe that He is with us through trials and sorrows and evil in this world--->The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you (Psalm 9:9-10). He is there with us! But people may have already asked the question; "Where was God in all this?" On September 11, 2001, God was exactly where He always is - in Heaven in total control of everything that happens in the universe. Why, then, would a good and loving God allow such a tragedy to happen? This is a more difficult question to answer. First, we must remember, “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts” (Isaiah 55:9). It is impossible for finite human beings to understand the ways of an infinite God (Romans 11:33-35). Second, we must realize that God is not responsible for the wicked acts of evil men. The Bible tells us that humanity is desperately wicked and sinful (Romans 3:10-18, 23). God allows human beings to commit sin for His own reasons and to fulfill His own purposes. Sometimes we think we understand why God is doing something, only to find out later that it was for a different purpose than we originally thought. God looks at things from an eternal perspective. We look at things from an earthly perspective. Why did God put man on earth, knowing that Adam and Eve would sin and therefore bring evil, death, and suffering on all mankind, because Satan as a serpent tempted Eve? As a result from the temptation of Satan, man went for it and that is how sin came into being! And like I said, the enemy (Satan) works by influencing others to attack others and harm them, maybe even death! Like the 9/11 attacks! Satan was in the midst of it all! Believe it or NOT! We cannot see him in action with our physical eyes, but only those who are "spiritually matured" is able to see him in action! At the time of September 11, 2001 attacks I wasn't a Christian then, so at the time I honestly was shocked about the attacks! Now I'm a christian and have been since 2006! I no longer get shocked anymore of what happens or goes on in the world! In other words, I am no longer surprised about what happens in the world because I know who is behind it all and who is causing it all! So, please don't blame God for the evil events that goes on in the world! He had nothing to do with it! Nothing at all, but he was there in the midst of it all and having mercy on people! When thinking of September 11, we tend to forget the thousands of miracles that occurred on that day. Hundreds of people were able to flee the buildings just in the nick of time. A small handful of firemen and one civilian survived in a tiny space in a stairwell as the one of the towers collapsed around them. The passengers on Flight 93 defeating the terrorists was a miracle in and of itself. Yes, September 11 was a terrible day. Sin reared its ugly head and caused great devastation. However, God is still in control. His sovereignty is never to be doubted. Could God have prevented what happened on September 11? Of course He could, but He chose to allow the events to unfold exactly as they did. He prevented that day from being as bad as it could have been. Since September 11, how many lives have been changed for the better? How many people have placed their faith in Christ for salvation as a result of what happened? The words of Romans 8:28 should always be in our minds when we think of 9-11, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, and are called according to His purpose.” ❤❤😟

Visualizing and going through all the different operations and taskforces Working on “the pile” after the colapse of the Twin Towers and the emotions and challenges and resolutions that faced those Comming from outside New York and why we must never forget that day and those who died and those who suffered and still do as a consequence of that days events.
