Filmmaker Angelo F. Guglielmo highlights how the worst day in American history brought out the very best in the American people with this tribute to the brave volunteers who put their own lives on hold to help the desperate victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. It was the largest rescue and recovery mission ever mounted on U.S. soil, and it couldn't have been accomplished without the help of everyday Americans. Now, as we hear the stories of these selfless heroes and feel the courage that it took to face such a tragic situation head on, we can finally begin to understand how their actions truly altered the course of history during our darkest hour.
