Green Bay West marks 25th 9/11 remembrance with silence, band and a stair climb

“You try and put it in a perspective that they can understand, they weren’t born, the magnitude of it, when you see it on TV, it’s just shocking and most of the firefighters we’re hiring right now are in the same boat, they weren’t even born yet. We try to put in perspective of remembrance. I told my crews this morning that remember in the blink of an eye, your day could change. We’ve had those days in Green Bay on Green Bay Metro Fire Department when we lost Arnie, in the blink of an eye, we had a firefighter who fell through the floor, in the blink of an eye, we had two planes hit the World Trade Centers in New York and I told our firefighters to value one another today, remember the firefighters who climbed those stairs to rescue those people out of that building, honor them and just remember that we could be put in that same situation,” Fuiten explained.Kemps donated 500 cartons of chocolate milk for students to drink at the event. The National Guard also brought a Humvee and some additional weighted backpacks for students to try on. The Green Bay Packers also gave away some Packers and Fuel Up to Play 60 NFL garb.
