9/11: First Responders on the Front Lines

Local volunteers and professional first responders don't shy away from danger.

Local first responders, like the people they serve, were affected by the events of September 11, 2001.

Eamon Brazunas, a volunteer Captain with the, is like many of his fellow firefighters in Berwyn, Paoli and Radnor as well as around the nation.

He was a freshman in college at Kent State University in Ohio. He was already a volunteer firefighter. Capt. Brazunas comes from a family of firefighters. He felt the same frustration that many first responders outside of the New York metro area have expressed about watching the events unfold on television.
