“The Sept. 11 Remembrance Ceremony today allowed me to reflect on my time as an EMT in the military and to appreciate your fellow brothers and sisters in arms, and first responders because you really never know what you’re going to respond to any time the tone is dropped,” said U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Ashley Maselli-Dismore, 18th Medical Healthcare Operations Squadron, ambulance services medical technician, at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Sept. 10, 2021.
