Team Scott stands united to remember Sept. 11, 2001
U.S. A1C Peyton Hughes, 375th Civil Engineer Squadron, firefighter rings a bell during the Patriots Day 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, Sept. 11, 2025. The bell tolled in honor of first responders and symbolized the alarms that once marked the start of their shifts, the calls to danger throughout the day, and the mournful toll that announced a comrade’s passing.
