The enduring photo for Americans of 9/11 will not be the images
of catastrophe.
Instead, the image of the three New York City firemen hoisting
the American flag at Ground Zero just hours after the worst-ever
attack on U.S. territory remains the most enduring image from that
horrific day - and is among the most inspirational tableaux in the
country's history.
The historic photo, taken by Thomas Franklin of The Record of
North Jersey, conjures up two of America's most moving battle icons
- the victorious World War II flag-raising at Iwo Jima and the
National Anthem's defiant lyric celebrating the country's resiliency
under attack: " . . . the bombs bursting in air gave proof
through the night that our flag was still there."
Now you can share and celebrate the courage of the heroes of
9/11, America's indomitable spirit and our flag - by ordering
NewsMax's unique "America Rises" framed photograph.
To get this picture simply - Go
Here Now.
This cherry colored wood frame is suitable for home and office.
The striking portrait is complimented by commemorative plate
inscribed with: American Rises, Ground Zero, September 11, 2001 and
measures 12 ¾" x 15 ¾".
This image was personally chosen by President Bush to appear on a
U.S. stamp - the first time living persons have been so depicted.
This America Rises framed photograph offered by NewsMax has been
officially accepted and licensed by the Bravest Fund and the three
heroic firemen depicted.
100 percent of royalties for the picture are donated to The
Bravest Fund and the North Jersey Media Group Disaster Relief Fund.
The Bravest Fund is a non-profit fund organized by the three
firefighters - Dan McWilliams, George Johnson and Billy Eisengrein -
to benefit firemen and their families who were victims of 9/11.
Though families of the 343 firefighters who died on 9/11 may
receive death benefits for their lost ones, these firemen's families
may not have the same claim to government benefits as others who
perished in the disaster.
And many of the countless rescue workers - firemen, police and
the other emergency responders - who survived 9/11 or who worked on
disaster relief after 9/11 have suffered injuries, but have received
little or no benefit.
Many of the rescuers now suffer from respiratory problems. In
more than a few cases, those health problems have already ended
careers.
By ordering this "America Rises" framed photo,
you will not only celebrate America and her greatness - but also
help a great cause - The Bravest Fund!
Dimensions are 12 ¾" x 15 ¾"
By donating to The Bravest Fund, you will not only honor and
help our heroes and their families - you will be paying tribute to
all the brave FDNY men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice on
9/11 - and are not forgotten one year later.
