## Caption

After hearing that President George W. Bush would be speaking to first responders after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, retired firefighter Bob Beckwith climbed on top of a fire engine covered in rubble to get a good view. He never imagined the president would climb up to join him to deliver one of his most memorable speeches.⁠
