Our memorial to those who made the ultimate sacrifice (Left). Ladder 118 crossing the Brooklyn Bridge to the Twin Towers (Right).

25 years ago today, time stood still.

We remember where we were.
We remember the smoke rising over New York.
We remember the silence after the towers fell.
We remember the courage of first responders, the resolve of our military, and the unity of a grieving nation.

“Never Forget” became more than a promise. It became a responsibility.

At Marines’ Memorial, this responsibility lives every day. Through our Living Memorial, we preserve the stories of those who gave everything, honor the veterans who continued the fight in the years that followed, and ensure future generations understand the true cost of freedom.

Today, as our nation observes Patriot Day, we invite you to transform remembrance into action.

Your gift today helps preserve the legacy of our fallen heroes, care for those who served, and ensure that their sacrifice continues to inspire generations yet unborn.

Memory fades unless it is protected. Together, let us ensure that America never forgets.
