Daily News | Philly officials gathered to honor first responders who died on 9/11. For those who lived, ‘there’s no danger of ever forgetting.’
It was 21 years ago when firefighter Adam K. Thiel left his Virginia home and his 2-week-old daughter to respond to the Pentagon, not knowing he wouldn’t return to her until three days later. By then, the world had changed.

Thiel was among a handful of city officials who gathered Sunday morning at the Betsy Ross House for an annual 9/11 remembrance ceremony hosted by the Philadelphia Flag Day Association and the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.Police and firefighters, marching alongside the Philadelphia Police and Fire Department Pipes & Drums, processed down Arch Street from the Fireman’s Hall Museum, which they left at 9:59 a.m.
