Tunnel to Towers announces ceremony to commemorate service members who died in War on Terror
Fox News
The Tunnel to Towers organization announced Thursday that it will commemorate the 20th anniversary of 9/11 with a reading of the name of every U.S. military service member who has fallen during the War on Terror.
The ceremony will take place on Veterans Day this year, and the reading will occur on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, as well. "We realized that one of the biggest things, like myself, when you lose a family member is that you never forget," Siller told Fox News. "I said ‘Oh my goodness, it’s 20 years.’ It’s about time that we read all these great heroes that sacrificed since 9/11 for this great country – that we read their names out loud." The War on Terror, as termed by President George W. Bush shortly after the attack, has claimed the lives of 7,059 service members in the line of duty as the U.S. responded with military action in Afghanistan and other countries in the Middle East.More Related News
