🕯️ Featuring Alison Crowther, Mother of 9/11 Hero Welles Crowther
In this Unforgettable 9/11 Tribute Episode, GOLD SHIELDS has the profound honor of speaking with Alison Crowther, the mother of Welles Crowther — a True American Hero known around the world as "The Man in the Red Bandana".
On September 11th, 2001, Welles, a 24-year-old equities trader and former volunteer firefighter, made the ultimate sacrifice. Wearing a red bandana — a signature from childhood, Welles navigated the smoke-filled chaos of the South Tower of the World Trade Center, saving over a dozen lives. Then, instead of fleeing to safety, he ran back up the stairs — again and again — to rescue others.
This episode will move you. It will inspire you. It will make you remember what heroism really looks like.
🔥 WATCH this powerful conversation as Alison Crowther shares her son’s legacy — a story of courage, sacrifice, and the red bandana that became a symbol of hope and bravery.
