Keith Roma: The 9/11 Fire Patrolman Missing From the 343 Toll
Keith Roma, a New York Fire Patrolman who helped carry workers to safety during 9/11, died in the North Tower collapse but is not counted among the FDNY’s 343 toll because Fire Patrols were a separate unit; his father Arnold Roma has spent 25 years fighting for official recognition, highlighting the Fire Patrol’s history and fueling ongoing debates over memorialization.
