520    The inspirational story of the iconic September 11 hero 
       traces his faith-based life outlook, his decision to walk 
       away from more lucrative career interests to volunteer as 
       a FDNY firefighter and the accounts of survivors who 
       revealed how he sacrificed his life to save people trapped
       in the South Tower. 
520    One Sunday morning before church, when Welles Crowther was
       a young boy, his father gave him a red handkerchief for 
       his back pocket. Welles kept it with him that day, and 
       just about every day to come; it became a fixture and his 
       signature. Welles became a volunteer with the local fire 
       department in New York. When the Twin Towers fell, 
       Welles's parents had no idea what happened to him. In the 
       unbearable days that followed, they came to accept that he
       would never come home. But the mystery of his final hours 
       persisted. Eight months after the attacks, however, 
       Welles's mother read a news account from several survivors,
       badly hurt on the 78th floor of the South Tower, who said 
       they and others had been led to safety by a stranger, 
       carrying a woman on his back, down nearly twenty flights 
       of stairs. After leading them down, the young man turned 
       around. "I'm going back up," was all he said. The 
       survivors didn't know his name, but despite the smoke and 
       panic, one of them remembered a single detail clearly: the
       man was wearing a red bandanna.--|cadapted from book
