Following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, two Portuguese firefighters joined the search and rescue operations in the United States. José Ricardo Bismarck was one of those firefighters who traveled to American territory to participate in the rescue missions.
Bismarck recalls the eight days he remained on American soil during that operation. His participation is part of the memory of the emergency actions that followed the destruction of the Twin Towers in New York and the attack on the Pentagon.
The article highlights that this Portuguese firefighter was one of the members of the Portuguese team who contributed to the international rescue efforts after one of the most tragic moments in the recent history of the United States.
