September 11, 2001 — Never Forget 🇺🇸

Today, Royal Oak Professional Firefighters Local 431 pauses to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the first responders who answered the call that morning.

We especially remember the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice, along with the police officers, EMS personnel, and countless others who ran toward danger to help people they had never met.

Twenty-five years later, their courage, sacrifice, and service continue to inspire firefighters across our country.

We also remember the many first responders who have lost their lives in the years since from illnesses related to their work at Ground Zero.

We will never forget.

🇺🇸 Royal Oak Professional Firefighters Local 431
Honor. Service. Sacrifice.

Smoke from Canadian wildfires has spread all across Metro Detroit. If you find yourself outside today in a light generalized haze or smell a vague odor of smoke, this is most likely the cause.

Canadian wildfire smoke is drifting into Michigan, prompting state officials to issue a statewide air quality alert through at least Thursday and possibly longer.
