    In this two-part weekend edition: On September 11th, Los Angeles Battalion Chief Robert Willcox was the safety officer for the department's elite Urban Search and Rescue team.  By day's end, FEMA ordered the group to Ground Zero where they worked 11-days amid the smoke, rubble and remains.  The 35-year fire veteran says the experience left a lasting impact on his life, and his colleagues.

    Then: All four passenger planes that crashed September 11th were bound for California - three en route to Los Angeles. In the 20 years since, victim's families have cut their own path through grief - a journey they say requires resilience, inner strength and courage.
