Changed the World Forever
The attacks on September 11, 2001, changed the face of the planet forever. A change greater than any single event since World War II. The images of the two smoking World Trade Center Towers in New York City, billowing thick, black smoke before their collapse, will be forever seared in memories around the globe.

Brave Heroes
Before the collapse of the towers, brave first responders from all over the city were attempting to rescue Americans and others trapped in the doomed buildings. The brave men of the New York Fire Department Ladder 3 were part of the futile rescue efforts. Their heroism, bravery, and selflessness, in blatant defiance of an order to retreat from the smoking Twin Towers, cost them their lives as they attempted to rescue trapped victims.

Legendary Men!
- Legends who left this world too early
- Men who should be honored and remembered by all generations
- Men of a rare breed

We Salute These American Heroes
And we wish to honor their memory and preserve their legacy with the DIA 3 Truck We're Still Heading Up hooded sweatshirt.

Never Forget These Final Words
Final words captured of Captain Paddy Brown, USMC veteran and celebrated commanding officer of Ladder 3, communicating the intentions of his brave crew:

Captain Paddy Brown / Ladder 3:
“I’m on the 35th floor, okay, okay?
Just relay to the command post we’re trying to get up.
There's numerous civilians at all stairwells, numerous burn injuries are coming down.
I’m trying to send them down first.
Apparently, it’s above the 75th floor.
I don’t know if they got there yet. Okay.
Three Truck and we are still heading up.
Okay? Thank you.”

Command Post to Ladder 3:
“Command Post to Ladder 3, get out of the building!”

Captain Paddy Brown / Ladder 3:
“This is the officer of Ladder Co. 3. I refuse the order!
I am on the 44th floor and we have too many burned people with me.
I'm not leaving them!”

To the brave crew of 3 Truck, we will never forget you!

Honor the Men of 3 Truck and preserve their legacy by wearing the DIA 3 Truck FDNY hoodie.

Small but big

I like the shirt. I like the sweatshirt but the flag on the chest seems to be backwards. I was under the impression stars are always top left. Unless I am not realizing something....the stars being top right jaut makes me feel weird

Thanks for the review, Michael. We're glad to hear that you like the shirt and hoodie overall.

Regarding the flag on the chest, we apologize for any confusion. The flag’s orientation symbolizes honor and forward engagement. The design is meant to honor Captain Paddy Brown and the Men of 3 Truck's bravery and dedication on 9/11. These men unselfishly assaulted forward into the Twin Towers on that fateful day.

Feel free to reach out if you still feel weird wearing the hoodie. It can be returned, and a full refund issued.

So so

Sweatshirt is nice quality, but for the price I expected more. The screen print looks faded, shirt was crammed into a small shipping envelope and no paperwork that gives the story behind the shirt. Was giving as gift and would be nice to have them know the meaning behind the shirt. Instead I copy and pasted the story from the website and printed that off.

Hey Jim,
Apologies for the delayed response. Also sorry to hear we didn't meet your expectations for the sweatshirt. Please let us know how we can make this purchase and experience better. Thank you. David @ DIA
