With the 20th Anniversary of 9/11 approaching I wanted to share an amazing story through storytelling and reading excerpts from a book called "What Brothers Do" by Michael Everett Brown. The story follows Mike Brown as he searches for his brother, FDNY Captain Paddy Brown. This is a bonus episode and one I hope you will find interesting and moving.Language warning is only from minutes 19:00 - 21:00, as read from the book."What Brothers Do follows the journey of the Brown brothers as one traces the life of a fallen icon and in the process, recreates his own. We stand in awe of the life of Paddy Brown and stand by his brother who knew only that he had to go find him. In doing so, he found pain but also loyalty and love."Link to the books mentioned in the episode: "What Brothers Do" https://amzn.to/3MHlRaI"The Book of Mychal" https://amzn.to/3aRDNm1Visit us at http://www.thefireofficerproject.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefireofficerproject Please leave any comments or suggestions via email at thefireofficerproject@gmail.com or on If you like what you hear, please share it on to others as we work to build this platform for current and future company officers...To donate to the show please click on the link below. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thefireoffG Disclaimer: Any and all information contained in these podcast episodes is strictly for informational purposes only and DOES NOT represent an official opinion/stance of my Department or any previous Departments I have worked for or mention.
