Welles was 24 when he died on Sept. 11, 2001.

Welles is credited with saving as many as 18 lives during the September 11 attacks while wearing his Red Bandana. Crowther’s family was unaware of the details of his heroism, until Allison Crowther read Judy Wein’s firsthand account in The New York Times of being saved by a man in a red bandana.

We will #neverforget #ManInTheRedBandana and today all of Rockland will be cheering on BC!
