Grand Island firefigher Mark Bonser aligns what he believes to be a floor joist from the World Trade Center with the department's current piece, which is an exterior column, Sunday at Station 3. Bonser, Troy ÒShubieÓ Schubert, Russ Bolling and Gary Mead went to Colorado Springs, Colo., last weekend to pick up pieces from the World Trade Center, totaling more than 20, to be used in the Nebraska Fire and Rescue Memorial at the site of the future Station 1. Bonser said he'd like to have some of Grand IslandÕs pieces out where people could lay their hands on them and have some of the smaller pieces as part of a traveling display. Bolling believes that Grand Island's pieces form the largest collection of World Trade Center debris in the midwest.
