September 11, 2001 did you forget?
Most of you are saying HOW COULD WE
FORGET? Many in the general public have,
and frankly a few more then one would
expect in the Public Safety Field seem
to have as well.
What do the Numbers 343 and 37 and
35 mean to you?
To me they mean the body count of a
murder conspiracy and only that part
with a Public Safety link.
343 Members of FDNY
37 Members of the PAPD (NY/NJ Port
Authority Police Department)
35 members of the NY City PD
All 415 were MURDERED in the LINE OF
DUTY others were injurtied some seioruly
all IN THE LINE OF DUTY.
Here is one of the "more recent"
stories to come from Ground Zero;
Ever heard of the FDNY Dream Bike?
The 1979 Honda CB750 LTD belonged to
FDNY Firefighter Gerard Baptiste, FDNY
badge #782 from Ladder 9, who bought
the old, non-running bike just two weeks
before 9-11-01. He had aimed to restore
it and ride it. After his murder, in
his honor and memory, firefighters along
with a large group of others took about
a year to make the classic motorcycle
better than new. It was painted in a
deep fire engine red and white color
scheme, with FDNY insignia and a special
tattoo-style image on the top of the
fuel tank, the bike is a brightly polished
and chromed rolling tribute to Baptiste
and all who sacrificed on 9-11. To learn
more, google "FDNY Dream Bike"
or visit this web site

Now why is in the news today? We'll
as Paul Harvey would say here's "the
rest of the story";
In a recent E-mail sent to some fire
servie based web sites the Father of
Firefighter Baptiste stated the follwing
""Dear Friends: Three months
ago, the NYC Medical Examiner's Office
identified the remains of my Son Gerard
Baptiste, FDNY. A funeral mass will
be held on Wednesday, Sept 7, 2005 at
10 in the morning, at Saint Patrick's
Cathedral. I would wish you put a note
in your website, asking the victims'
families and friends to accompany us
by their presence in this very sad circumstance.
Thank you very much, Gerard Jean Baptiste"
Now you know "the rest of the
story", share this with everyone
but particuly wioth anyone that has
"forgotten"
