Manassas's Stonewall Stonewall Jackson Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad held a 110-story stair climb to remember the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001. Proceeds
from the climb benefit the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. More than 100 volunteer and career firefighters spent the morning climbing so people never forget that day and the people who died.
Before the actual climb began, participants and planners gathered together for a prayer and a moment of silence to remember the men and women who died a decade ago trying to save others.
