WATCH: Bald eagle lands on 9/11 memorial flag display during tribute to victims
The Andover Fire Department’s video of an eagle who landed on top of a 9/11 display is quickly gaining viral status.
On Tuesday, which is the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 attack, the fire department held a tribute to the events over Highway 10 in Andover.
“We’re all set up here, so nobody forgets,” Andover Fire Chief Jerry Streich said.
That’s when something unexpected happened. An eagle landed right on top of the aerial truck helping to hold the American Flag.
“Isn’t that unbelievable?” Streich said. “This eagle just landed on the aerial while we’re doing the 9/11 memorial. Phenomenal.”
