UNC Army ROTC commemorates the anniversary of 9/11

Posted Sep 11, 2020
For the past three years, senior Kyle Walker has started each Sept. 11 by running 110 sets of stairs in Kenan Stadium to commemorate the anniversary of the terrorist attacks. The pandemic this year wasn’t going to stop him and his fellow Army ROTC cadets from continuing that tradition to pay respect to the men and women who lost their lives on 9/11. (UNC.edu)
