9/11 MEMORIAL CLIMB — WE CLIMB TO REMEMBER

This week, we asked Firefighter Myles Schafer and Volunteer Firefighter Ethan Klindt what it means to them to be part of the Devils Lake Fire Department 9/11 Memorial Climb.

MYLES SCHAFER

“I wasn’t born yet when 9/11 happened, but throughout my life I have heard the stories and learned about that day.

I climb not only for the 343 firefighters who paid the ultimate sacrifice, but for their families, friends, and everyone who continues to carry their memory.

I climb to honor their sacrifice, remember their stories, and carry their legacy forward.”

ETHAN KLINDT

“I was not yet born when the attacks of September 11, 2001, happened, so I do not have a personal memory of that day. However, I have heard through my family how devastating it was for our nation and how deeply it affected so many people.

After nearly four years with the Devils Lake Fire Department, I have learned what it means to serve others and be there for people during some of their hardest moments.

The 9/11 Stair Climb gives me an opportunity to honor the courage and sacrifice of the firefighters and all the first responders who answered the call that day.

Every step is a tribute to those who were lost and to the families and communities they left behind.

We climb to honor them. We climb to remember them. We climb so that we never forget.”

25 YEARS LATER — WE STILL REMEMBER. WE STILL HONOR. WE STILL CLIMB.

08/11/2026

We asked Capt. Jeremy Beck and Volunteer Firefighter Mat Hunt what the 9/11 Memorial Climb means to them.

Capt. Jeremy Beck:
“To me, walking the 9/11 Memorial Walk is a deep sense of pride to walk for those who went before us and laid it all on the line so that others could live. It is a sad day, yet also a proud one, as we see that men and women are still answering the call. All who serve in the EMS world stand on the shoulders of those who came before us and paid the ultimate price. It remains hard to fathom that there are still people willing to lay down their lives so that others may live.”

Volunteer Firefighter Mat Hunt:
“I was only four years old when the events of 9/11 unfolded, so I don’t have personal memories of that day or the tragedy our nation experienced. However, after joining the fire service over two years ago, I’ve come to understand what it truly means to be part of this profession and the brotherhood that stands behind it. Participating in the 9/11 event is my way of honoring the firefighters and all the lives lost that day, while paying tribute to the legacy they left behind. It’s a reminder that, although I didn’t witness that day firsthand, I have a responsibility to never forget and to carry their memory with pride and respect.”

Join us. Take the steps. Honor the sacrifice. Never Forget.

We asked Sr Capt. Brandon Exner and Volunteer Lt. Britton Lagasse what this event means to them. Their answers are a powerful reminder of why we climb and why we continue to honor the 343 firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Sr Capt. Brandon Exner ~ I was in college when the attacks of September 11, 2001, occurred. Like millions of Americans, I watched the events unfold live on television. I remember the shock, disbelief, and sadness as our country came under attack, and nearly 3,000 innocent lives were lost. At the time, I never imagined I would one day become a firefighter. Now, as a captain with the Devils Lake Fire Department, I view that day through a very different perspective. I have a deep appreciation for the courage and selflessness shown by the firefighters and first responders who ran toward danger while others were fleeing. For me, 9/11 is about more than remembering a tragedy. It is about honoring those who lost their lives and the extraordinary courage of the first responders who answered the call without hesitation. It reminds us that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary acts when others need them most, and it reinforces the importance of service, leadership, and always being prepared to answer the call when our community calls.

Volunteer Lt. Britton Lagasse ~ The 9/11 Walk is more than a physical challenge it is a solemn act of remembrance, honor, and commitment. As a firefighter, every step represents the sacrifice made by the 343 firefighters who gave their lives on September 11, 2001, while answering the call to save others. Their courage, selflessness, and dedication continue to inspire the fire service around the world.
