This 9/11 memorial is near the ticket counters and baggage claim at the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport (ICT). It is not behind security. The steel I-beam is a section cut from item G-0143, transferred to the TSA at ICT from the US District Court Southern District of New York, through the efforts of two TSA employees -- Phillip Garcia and Robin Farlow. There is an eagle with outstretched wings on top of the I-beam, and a plaque on the wall behind the monument says "We will never forget"
