On September 11, 2001, the Port Authority Police Department suffered the greatest single-day loss of life in U.S. law enforcement history. Thirty-seven officers never came home.
In this first part of a powerful two-part series, Chief Joe Morris shares his firsthand 9/11 story. Starting the day as commanding officer at LaGuardia Airport, Joe recounts how he mobilized his team, rushed to the World Trade Center, and found himself the senior officer on the ground after the collapse of the South Tower.
This is a gripping account of courage, chaos, and survival - told by the man who suddenly had to bring order to the worst attack on American soil.
