dc.descriptionThe next day, Torres received several calls from senior officers at the firehouse, stating that they had received disgruntled reports that he had defaced the column with graffiti. Torres explained that he was not trying to be disrespectful but rather to mark where their squad members appeared to have been found. Within 24 hours the column was covered with other unit identifications and the initial attachments of memorial tributes that would grow over the next few months. Ultimately this beam became known as �The Last Column� and became a symbol of loss, remembrance and of the community at ground zero and was ceremoniously removed from the site on May 30, 2002, to mark the end of the recovery effort. The beam returned to the 9/11 Museum in 2009.
