Part 3: Firefighter Erin Gray reflects on staying accountable and how her fellow firefighters and family push her to keep showing up, even on the days when excuses would be easier. Pushing each other, showing up for one another, doing it together.

Today marks 25 years since 9/11. What started as a show of support has grown into a yearly pilgrimage: firefighters in full gear quietly climbing 110 floors in tribute to the 343, a practice that's grown from small numbers into thousands, now joined by supporters honoring those who've given so much.

25 years later, we climb to remember.
