The hero I chose for 9/11 was Benjamin Keefe Clark, a chef from the 96th floor of the South Tower. I believe he is a great hero because he saved hundreds of people on his floor, helping them escape the building. Before becoming a chef, Benjamin had gone to military school and was a Marine for eight years. The only reason he didn't escape himself was because he stopped to help a woman in a wheelchair. Benjamin, age 39, ended up dying in the building's collapse.
