Those who died in the 9/11 attacks were honored during a Patriot Day observance organized by the Blue Mountain Battalion Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC). The solemn ceremony marked the 20th anniversary of 9/11.
“Taps” was played as the U.S. flag was lowered to half-staff by ROTC color guard. Interim President John E. Jones III ’77, P’11, and his wife, Beth, presented a wreath at the flagpole. Hannah Youmans ’22 sang “Amazing Grace,” and Col. Edward Franklin, Carlisle Barracks Installation Chaplain, offered a remembrance prayer.
