Americans Mark 25th Anniversary of September 11 Attacks

Why it matters locally: The 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks serves as a poignant reminder for Wyoming residents of the service and sacrifice of military personnel, many of whom have deployed from bases like F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, and for first responders across the state, including the Natrona County Fire Protection District and the Campbell County Sheriff's Office.
