Commander David A. Shirk address a crowd during a 9/11 Memorial Service at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., Sept. 11, 2015. Marines gather every September 11 to honor the fallen men and women of this iconic mark on American history. Many remember what it was like to turn on the news and witness ash and debris cascade over New York City’s streets as bystanders scattered to safety. Marines endure vigorous and precise training to ensure they are proficient and always ready to protect their nation’s safety. Shirk is the command Chaplin for the air station.
