Marc and Rebecca Asaro were just children when their father, New York City firefighter Carl Asaro, gave his life while saving others on 9/11. Now, 18 years later, Marc and Rebecca are following in their father's footsteps by becoming firefighters themselves. Of the New York City Fire Department's class of 301 probationary members, 21 are the children of fallen first responders, including some who died on 9/11.
