Fox News
Tom Ridge, a former governor of Pennsylvania and the first Homeland Security secretary, recalled how America "pulled together" in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 terror attacks 20 years ago.
In a video address, he recalled his visit to the Flight 93 site on 9/11, saying that "no amount of time can ever fade my memories of that day." "What I remember most about 9/11 is stepping off the helicopter at Shanksville, Pennsylvania – and being met by the brutal sound of silence," he said. "Emergency personnel searched the fields. Ambulances were at the ready. Rescue workers wanted someone to save."More Related News
