5/18/2006 Pentagon Tour: |
|
The head of the Pentagon’s K-9 unit graciously arranged a tour for the BowTie team. We had two lieutenants escorting us for about two hours, both of whom were involved in 9/11 rescue efforts at the Pentagon. They shared first-hand knowledge of rescue efforts that day, and how their loyal K-9 companions consoled not only them but also family members who lost loved ones that day. |
