''Raising the Flag at Ground Zero'' is a photograph by Thomas E. Franklin of ''The Record'' (Bergen County, NJ), taken on September 11, 2001. The picture shows three New York City firefighters raising the American flag at Ground Zero of the World Trade Center, following the September 11 attacks. The official names for the photograph used by ''The Record'' are ''Firefighters Raising Flag'' and ''Firemen Raising the Flag at Ground Zero''. The photo appeared on ''The Record'' front page on September 12, 2001. The paper also put it on the Associated Press wire and it appeared on the covers of several newspapers around the world. It has often been compared to the ''Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima'' photograph taken by Joe Rosenthal during World War II. ==Photograph==
Franklin shot the photograph shortly after 5 p.m. with a telephoto lens. At this time, he was standing under a pedestrian walkway across the West Side Highway that connected the center to the World Financial Center, located at the northwest corner of the World Trade Center site. Franklin said the firefighters were about away from him and the debris was beyond that. They were about off the ground. Franklin had hitched a ride on a tug boat across the Hudson River, arriving around noon after the towers had collapsed. He was with photographer James Nachtwey when he saw the firefighters. The firefighters pictured were Brooklyn-based firefighters George Johnson of Rockaway Beach, Dan McWilliams of Long Island (both from Ladder 157), and Billy Eisengrein of Staten Island (Rescue 2).
