9/11 Memorial steal beams displayed at McEntire

Kristopher Lange, a firefighter with the Lexington County Fire Service, speaks to members of the 169th Student Flight about a 9/11 memorial to be built in Columbia, S.C. Two steel beams recovered from the site of the World Trade Center in New York City after the Sept. 11, 2001 tragedy are displayed at McEntire Joint National Guard Base, S.C., on August 7, 2011. Airmen from the S.C. Air National Guard had a first-hand opportunity to see a piece of history during the August UTA.
