On the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Inside the Castle pauses to honor the nearly 3,000 precious lives lost and the unimaginable courage of the first responders who ran toward the danger. In this solemn episode, podcast hosts Reagan Lauritzen and Amy Snively talk with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Historian Dr. John Lonnquest and USACE Curator Eric Reinert to reflect on USACE’s rapid mobilization and the sacred duty of preserving that history. The discussion covers the critical, behind-the-scenes engineering efforts at the Pentagon and Ground Zero—from structural triage and environmental remediation to the painstaking debris recovery mission.

For many who remember September 11, 2001, the day began with an image that remains vivid 25 years later: a brilliantly clear early fall morning and blue skies that gave no hint of what was to come. Within hours, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C., and the crash of a fourth hijacked airliner near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, had killed nearly 3,000 people and changed the nation.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was among the many organizations called upon to respond.

Today we remember and reflect.

LAKE UPDATE 9/4/26: The lake is back to Summer pool. Work crews including DNR, marina staff and other local facilities worked hard this past week cleaning up and addressing impacts from the recent August flooding event. Labor Day weekend spent at your favorite Brookville Lake, plus wearing your lifejacket and being safe around the water, equals fun times ahead! We thought you might enjoy seeing two comparison videos of the flow today that is 100 c.f.s. vs. what we were doing at max release of 6,300 c.f.s. just a little over a week ago (posted in comments). For the most current lake levels and other information, please visit the Louisville District’s Lake Information page.

When paddling on rivers, steer clear of commercial vessels. 🚢 They have the right of way in a navigation channel.

Human-powered vessels should avoid commercial traffic. Boats don’t have brakes, and it takes an average of ¾ to 1½ miles for a towboat pushing barges to stop. ⚠️

Give commercial vessels plenty of room and stay safe on the water! 🌊
