- A week from Friday marks 25 years since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Nearly 3,000 people were killed that day, and thousands more have since died from illnesses and injuries connected to the attacks.
To make sure those lives and sacrifices are never forgotten, there are 12 memorials around Maine, including one in Freeport.
The memorial is located next to the town's police and fire departments.
Two of the men responsible for bringing the memorial to Freeport joined ARC Maine to talk about its significance and the importance of remembering 9/11, 25 years later.
