Barry Driscoll with his father Stephen.
Stephen Patrick Driscoll was 38 years old and from Lake Carmel, New York. Stephen was a police officer for New York City Police Department, Emergency Services Squad 4.
Stephen was one of 23 New York City Police Department officers who died trying to rescue others at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
PO Driscoll and many other emergency workers took part in what has been considered the greatest rescue effort in America's history. Steve and his comrades entered the South Tower of the World Trade Center and while performing their duties, they lost their lives when the building came down.
Now aged 25, Barry Driscoll has followed in his selfless father's footsteps and joined the NYPD's ranks, taking his dad's shield number. Barry has been given badge number 17482 and assigned to the 44th Precinct in The Bronx.
what an honor for Stephen, that his son has followed in his footsteps. RIP Stephen, you and your comrades will be remembered always.
