ICYMI: USAG Wiesbaden hosted a memorial event to honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost on 9/11 and the first responders who ran toward danger. Participants climbed 2,200 steps, the equivalent of the World Trade Center's 110 stories. To achieve this, they each walked up the stairwell of the large parking garage on Clay Kaserne 21 times.
Thank you to everyone who showed up yesterday and made every step count.
A special thanks to our Directorate of Emergency Services, the Bundeswehr in Hesse, the City of Wiesbaden Fire Department, and the Polizei Westhessen for supporting this event. We are proud to stand with our partners as one community in remembrance of those lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the families who continue to carry their loss.
