Firefighters' Memorial Monument This statue, plaza and site perpetually commemorate the past and present dedication, skill and contribution of the men and women of the fire service of the City of Harrisburg and of this Commonwealth and Nation. Forever shall this site memorialize those who have been lost in the line-of-duty. The service, sacrifice, valor & courage of such fire-fighters inspire & embolden the Nation and this City. Their names are enshrined for all time for their supreme & gallant effort for Country & Community in the never-ending cause of protecting Life & Property. That so many would be so dedicated defines the American Spirit for future generations. This monument was restored in 2002 & rededicated on the 1st Anniversary of Sept 11, 2001 attacks on the U.S., when 343 firefighters of the Fire Dept of NY were lost. The City of Harrisburg, administrator of Penn Task Force One, was the 1st dispatched to respond to the site of the former World Trade Center in the wake of national tragedy on a day when over 3000 lost their lives. In remembrance of this history in salute to the heroism & professionalism of the Task Force & all in the fire service of American & this City, this Monument is further dedicated.
