DIA 3 Truck Distressed Ball Cap

A Tribute Worn with Purpose

By DIA

September 11, 2001 changed the world forever.

In the smoke and chaos of that morning, a group of men made a choice that defined heroism. The firefighters of Ladder Company 3 didn’t retreat. They kept climbing, knowing the risk, refusing to abandon the civilians trapped above.

This hat honors their final stand. A simple but powerful reminder of courage without compromise. Men like Captain Paddy Brown, a Marine Veteran and the commanding officer of Ladder 3, who refused the order to evacuate. His last words still echo:
“I refuse the order… I’m not leaving them.”

They didn’t die looking for glory. They died doing the job, because that’s what real heroes do.

Wear this hat to remember them. To honor their names. To remind the world that true bravery means going up when everyone else is going down.

Proceeds from this hat support first responder charities and the families of those who gave everything on 9/11.

Never forget. Always heading up.
