Synopsis
In this 9/11 memoir, a retired former lieutenant in the Port Authority Police Department recounts the struggles at Ground Zero as volunteers worked shoulder to shoulder on the biggest recovery task in history--and got it done. William Keegan, Jr. tells of the physical ordeal and the emotional drain as they returned each day hopeful that they would, at first, rescue those trapped, and later, recover respectfully the bodies of those who died.
Keegan is candid about those who were helpful and those who got in the way, and he acknowledges things like rivalries between uniformed workers, but, when all is said and done, each person who showed up was changed forever through the great burden and common bond that they all shared. Photographs.
