The Speakers included Arlington County Fire Chief Jim Schwartz (Ret.) who gave his keynote speech about how Arlington was the only jurisdiction praised by the 9-11 Commission for being prepared; Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) spoke about how the 20th anniversary filled him with sadness, anger, pride and relief; other speakers included Cong. Don Beyer (D-VA), whose district includes Arlington and the Pentagon, Arlington County Police Chief Charles “Andy” Penn, Arlington County Sheriff Beth Arthur, and the current Arlington County Fire Chief, David Povlitz. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Before the ceremony began, former (and possibly future) Gov. Terry McAuliffe chatted with Boy Scouts and their family members, while Sen. Kaine posed with Boy Scout Troop 164, including Megan Mazel. Ms. Mazel's Eagle Scout project was to add the pentagonal raised platform around the existing I-beam Memorial. Sen. Kaine also visited the memorial while chatting with the leadership of Boy Scout Troop 164 and Ms. Mazel.
