A bent piece of steel is the centerpiece of a memorial to those lost during the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and is framed along with American and Texas flags by a wreath during a memorial ceremony conducted at the Alpine Border Patrol Station on the 20th anniversary of the events. An Air and Marine Operations helicopter can be seen in the background too. Alpine Station has a direct connection to the terrorist attacks on 9/11 as there was a ground-breaking ceremony that fateful day for the station building. 10 years after the event a memorial using a large piece of steel from the World Trade Center Towers was erected and now stands as a reminder of the importance of Customs and Border Protection's mission of keeping America safe from future attacks.
