Remembering 9/11

The ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) at Byrnes high school remembered 9/11 by honoring the local fire departments with a flag ceremony and doughnuts.

The Reidville Fire Department remembered 9/11 by putting up a 16ft by 12ft American flag off of the ladder on their ladder truck, well they tried to put it up…it went up, then fell down, then went up, then was brought down for adjustments, then went up again and then two hours into the attempt, it was brought down because it was just too windy.

  1. The doughnut ROTC is my favorite of the summer, thus far, perfect smile and perfect nuts. This work is good!

  2. We had some visitors into the museum on 9/11. They signed the guest book and then realized the date and said, “Geez, it’s 9/11. Glad we don’t have to think about that today.”
