Team Schriever held a dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony for a 9/11 World Trade Center artifact display Sept. 11 here.
The display serves to honor the lives of nearly 3,000 men, women and children who died during the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, as well as the 6,000 service members who gave their lives defending this nation since.
“As the men and women of Team Schriever drive to work every day to accomplish critical missions, they will no doubt be inspired by the display,” said Col. James Ross, 50th Space Wing commander. “We are honored that the people of New York City and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey have shared with us a piece of American history. This artifact from the World Trade Center reminds us that our unique mission sets are in direct support of larger goals: keeping the homeland safe while promoting our interests abroad.”
