🇺🇸 WE REMEMBER — SEPTEMBER 11, 2001

Today, Naval Station Norfolk joins our nation in remembering the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001.

Twenty-five years have passed since the attacks that forever changed our nation. We remember the innocent lives taken, the courage of the first responders who ran toward danger, and the service members who answered our nation’s call.

We also remember how Americans came together in the face of unimaginable tragedy — united by compassion, resolve and a shared love of country.

On this 25th anniversary, we pause to honor the fallen, stand with their families and ensure their memories endure.

We will never forget. 🇺🇸
