Never Forget: 9/11

September 1, 2021 By Alice

Never Forget, September 11.

“Each year on the anniversary of 9/11, the families of victims gather for a ceremony on the 9/11 Memorial Plaza to read aloud the names of the 2,983 men, women, and children killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks and February 26, 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

Six moments of silence mark the times when each of the World Trade Center towers were struck, when each tower fell, and the times corresponding to the attack at the Pentagon, and the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 in Pennsylvania.”

Ensuring long-term health care for first responders has not been easy. The James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 was enacted to provide health monitoring and care for first responders, volunteers, and survivors. The law is named after James Zadroga, a New York Police Department officer, whose death was linked to health complications from the dust and the fumes after the terrorist attacks.

The funding for the bill has a complex history. Only on June 12, 2019 a bill was unanimously passed to permanently reauthorize the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund.

“The most common conditions certified by the World Trade Center Health Program are rhinosinusitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), asthma, sleep apnea, cancer, posttraumatic stress disorder, respiratory disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, depression, and anxiety disorder. The most common cancers are skin cancer and prostate cancer.”

Never Forget September 11.

Thank you, to our first responders.

Author Notes

I write about old, unsolved cases from the pre-DNA era as they need renewed media attention. I only do research and leave the active investigation of these cases to professionals.

Posts include homicides, missing and unidentified people, wrongful convictions, and forensics as related to these cases.

On book reviews: I only review select works of true crime, crime fiction, and historical fiction/mysteries. The stories have to fit my website's theme and research. It remains my prerogative to not review a book. Please check the FAQ page for more.

My databases are free to the public. Cases are sorted by the victim’s last name.

If you have any questions about my website please check the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page, the about page, and the tabs in both menu bars. If you cannot find the answers there, please contact me.

Thank you,

Alice de Sturler
