Thumbs up The Rolling Memorial

These are pictures of an independent trucker who has painted his cab and trailer with the names of all those who lost their lives in 9/11. The trucker 's name is John Holmgren from Shafer Minn. The trucker has been "pulled over" numerous times just so the troopers can get their picture taken with the truck

Be on the lookout for the truck, it might just come through your state.

We're family.

Your pain is my pain. I lost friends that day and a part of myself as well.

My grandfather was a captain on the LAPD, my bother is a patrolman in Manteca, CA, his wife is an ER nurse. I have two neices training to become nurses. My husband's grandfather started the fire departments in Kinderhook and Valatie NY. I have close friends who are volunteers further north. Just as military blood runs through my veins so does the deep need to help others.

I could never forget.

I received the same pics as an e-mail att. Thanks for showing them here.
To stand that day and see the towers fall, knowing the size of the catastrophy, put me in tears. Being a firefighter and 4 hours away, there was not much one can do. It was the worst feeling of helplessness anyone could have. The local fire department sent a crew down to assist after thing were a little more organized.

I am really impressed by this trucker and his commitment to let us never forget the people who perished on 9/11.
