Gotham’s Camren Bicondova pulled double duty, not only thinking about those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, but also those who help to keep us safe. Camren had a request for everyone in the U.S. not affected by the hurricanes to thank military veterans, active duty military, firefighters, and police officers for their service. She added, September 11th, 2011 forever changed our country, and they were there to protect us.”
