Inscription.
This memorial is dedicated to first responders
worldwide who risk their lives so others may live.

Enclosed within this tribute is structural steel from the Twin Towers,
items from the Flight 93 crash site in Shanksville, Pa
and artifacts from the Pentagon, all of which were attacked on
September 11, 2001.

These remnants are reminders of America's unbreakable spirit.
Since 1776 the United State has stood Twin Towers tall and
its tribute in light at Ground Zero will always serve as a
beacon for freedom-loving people everywhere.
