Today, the Maine Maritime Academy community gathered during Regimental Morning Muster to honor and remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

As part of the Academy's annual September 11 Remembrance Ceremony, attendees heard reflections from two special guest speakers: Father Erin... Donlon, LT, USN, an MMA alumnus (MSE Class of 2017), Parochial Vicar at the Parish of the Resurrection of the Lord in Old Town, Maine, and an active Naval Chaplain Candidate; and Fire Chief Michael "Mike" Clark (Ret.), a fifth-generation firefighter and paramedic whose distinguished 37-year career has included service with the City of Bath, FEMA disaster response teams, Bath Iron Works, and the U.S. Coast Guard firefighting program at MMA.

We thank Father Donlon and Chief Clark for sharing their experiences and perspectives as we paused to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and resilience demonstrated on that day and in the years since.

A recording of the ceremony, including remarks from both speakers, is available at live.mainemaritime.edu.
