## Resource

On September 11, 2001, America was forever changed — and Nebraska felt it too. Firefighter Mark Majors raced to Ground Zero with Nebraska Task Force One, his training guiding him through devastation he’ll never forget. At Lincoln Airport, director Bob McNally stood alone as chaos unfolded, grounding flights and sheltering stranded travelers. FEMA sent John Huff to the Pentagon, where smoke rose from a shattered symbol of power — and a cryptic order to deploy without calling back. In classrooms, teachers like Colleen Ogden and Judi Wittwer struggled to explain the unthinkable to kids glued to TVs or haunted by refugee trauma. Even Nebraska’s football team paused — rescheduling games amid national grief. From first responders to educators to athletes, this day revealed a nation’s raw resilience — and its unshakable spirit in the face of unimaginable loss.
