awards call department died expect fallen high justice last limit medals officers order people phone physics police quality received record rescue shortest summer time trying
Last summer we received a phone call from the Department of Justice requesting medals commemorating the fallen police officers and firefighters who died trying to rescue people during the 9/11 attacks. We did that order in record time. They know they can come to us and get high quality awards in the shortest time you can expect - but sometimes physics does limit some things.
basically brothers check degree everybody families fathers generally help higher involved match meaning medals names plant reality receive sons trying wiped
When we engraved the 442 names on the back of the medals - that's when the reality sinks in. Everybody in the whole plant had to be involved to check the names and match the medals with the cases.

But that's what we do - what we manufacture generally has a higher degree of meaning to those that receive it. It's not just any award.

against attack avenues bone cancer cause cells chemicals confirm fertile field marrow opens possibilities prevent primary provide send settle somewhere stimulate tumor
How does the primary tumor cause the bone marrow cells to settle somewhere and provide a fertile field for metastasis - does it send out chemicals that stimulate the bone marrow cells? And why do those bone marrow cells settle where they do? It also opens possibilities for other avenues of attack against the cancer to prevent its spread. Before anything else, however, other researchers need to confirm that these findings are true.
