Yes, many firefighters lost their lives during the September 11, 2001 attacks. A total of 343 firefighters from the New York City Fire Department perished in the line of duty while responding to the World Trade Center attacks.
The name of the movie is the "World trade center."
If referring to the World Trade Center in NYC - a total of 60. 23 Port Authority police officers and 37 NY Police Dept. officers.
The number of female firefighters in the New York City Fire Dept. is very low. Until 1977, women were not allowed to apply for jobs as firefighters in New York City and it wasn't until1982 that women finally passed the physical exam. Even after legal requirements were established and met, for many years it was made extremely difficult for a qualified women to endure the resentment and discrimination that they met with on the job. Many of the male firefighters and New York City residents did not want women in the department. To quote Capt. Brenda Berkman, one of the first women to get a job in the NYFD, "The idea that men hated me so much that they might leave me in a burning building by myself, that they drained my air tank, that they phoned death threats to my house, that they followed me around on the street and threatened me---that was scary."Although times have changed in those 28 years since Brenda Berkman fought for her job, the number of women firefighters is still extremely low. 343 firefighters died in the attacks on 911 but the fire department does not record the numbers by gender. So, I invite you to read the list of the 343 and find that number yourself on the link below. The gender of those who died is irrelevant, it makes their sacrifice on that day no more or less valiant.
