The 9/11 Memorial and Museum is marking the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks by unveiling a new exhibition exploring the legacy of service inspired by that day and preserving its history for the next generation. In Their Honor: 25 Years of 9/11 Inspired Service highlights how 9/11 inspired thousands of Americans to serve their communities and country in the years that followed. "So many people who visit the museum or who are interested in learning about 9/11 are too young to remember themselves, and one of the stories that they don't necessarily realize when they start to encounter the history of 9/11 is how much it changed the arc of people's lives," 9/11 Memorial and Museum President and CEO Elizabeth L. Hillman told Fox News Digital.
