Bush, Rice Plan 25th-Anniversary 9/11 Discussion

11 sourcesUpdated Sep 9, 2026

As the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks approaches, former President George W. Bush plans to make his only public remarks of the year at a George W. Bush Presidential Center event with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, military leaders and veterans. The discussion will examine how the attacks reshaped the country and emphasize service. President Donald Trump has also reflected on watching the attacks from Manhattan, recalling the moment he realized the plane crashes were a terrorist assault and praising New York’s rebuilding. A white Navy cap belonging to Edward Earhart, a 26-year-old Navy petty officer from Kentucky who died at the Pentagon, illustrates efforts to preserve the individual stories of the nearly 3,000 victims for younger Americans who have no firsthand memory of the attacks. As 9/11 passes from living memory into history, these accounts underscore the importance of transmitting an honest narrative centered on the people affected.

Last 9/11 Firefighter Remains at Ten House

Sal Argano, now 65, is the last firefighter from Ten House assigned in 2001 still on the job at Engine 10/Ladder 10, a firehouse that doubles as an active station and an informal 9/11 memorial visited by tourists. The Ten House crew, including Capt. Terence Brody, played pivotal roles during and after 9/11, with the site featuring a bronze relief memorial to fallen firefighters and drawing crowds to this historic intersection near the National 9/11 Memorial.
