The rebuilding at Newark Liberty International Airport made it necessary to retire an American Flag that has flown at Gate 17, Terminal A for the past twenty years. On September 11, 2001, United Airlines Flight 93 departed Gate 17, flying off into history resulting in the infamous acts of 9/11. The PAPD Newark Airport Command stood a solemn formation in remembrance and honor of those lost on Flight 93, as the flag was lowered. It was UAL passenger Todd Beamer's clarion call, "Let"s Roll" that began a passenger revolt against the terrorists. It is theorized the passengers' self sacrifice saved many more lives at the target of the planned terror attack.

For several nights this young lady was spotted running free on the upper and lower levels of the George Washington Bridge as well on the surrounding roads. On Tuesday, September 14, at approximately 3:50 a.m., Port Authority police officers observed her on the bridge's upper roadway in New York running toward New Jersey. At one point she cheated death as she laid down and a tractor-trailer passed over her. The cops, assigned to the PAPD's GWB Command, began a quest to capture her in an effort to avoid motor vehicle accidents, motorist injuries and harm to the dog. The officers eventually stopped traffic as the dog continued her run toward New Jersey. Her odyssey brought her off the bridge and onto Main Street in Fort Lee. PAPD radio cars were able to corner the fleeing canine on Main Street and successfully and safely take her into custody. The cops brought her to the GWB station house were she was fed and given water. She was later transported to the Bergen County Animal Shelter where an attempt to locate her owner was made. If unsuccessful she will most probably be put up for adoption.

September 11, 2021, was a day of honor and remembrance of the sacrifices made by many on 9/11 so others may live. Retired members of the PAPD George Washington Bridge Command gathered on Saturday, September 11, 2021, at the George Washington Bridge to honor Port Authority Police Officer Bruce Reynolds, E.O.W. 9/11/2001. Police Officer Reynolds responded to the World Trade Center and rescued many before the collapse of the Towers took his life. His last known words were to then rookie Port Authority Police Officer Will Jimeno, who became trapped in the collapse, saying, "You know what kid, it is going to be a long day, but we are going to get a lot of people home." Anyone who knew Bruce can hear him saying those words. Bruce was the epitome of, "Others before self."
After paying their respects to Bruce at the GWB, Bruce's partners had a celebratory brunch with memories of Bruce at Chillers Grill in Fort Lee, New Jersey. Bruce, rest in the Lord's eternal embrace. Always Honored, Never Forgotten.
