25 years later, we remember September 11, 2001.
9/11 remains a part of FM's history because in the hours following the attacks, members of our team traveled to New York City to assist with the relief effort. For several days, they worked to restore power to critical cell phone sites that had been damaged or destroyed, helping bring communications back online for first responders, law enforcement, and those trying to reach loved ones.
Within three days, the team had helped get 20 cell sites up and running. But when those who were there looked back on the experience, what stayed with them went far beyond the work they were doing. Former FM employee Lance Koren, recalled, “There's a lot of unity. It's like one big family down there.”
For the 25th anniversary, we’ve put together a page documenting FM’s experience in the days following September 11, including photos, interviews, and memories from those who were there. For those who would like to read more, we’ve shared that history here: https://www.fmgenerator.com/9-11-25th-anniversary
On the 25th anniversary of September 11, we remember the lives lost, those who responded, and the many people who came together to help in the days that followed.
We will never forget. 💙
