My thoughts prayers and rememberances to Anyone on the forum involved, on that very unforgettable day in American/Canadian history.

And we shouldn’t. Ever. There are bitter lessons for those who will open their minds and learn.

I was sitting at the counter eating breakfast and watching the news before I went to work. I can never forget that day.

I was flying to JFK from Boise that morning. Watched TV in the lounge, when the 1st tower fell went and got my rental car and back to the hotel.
Got the 1st flt to Newark on Thursday–was not a fun flight. The gentleman next to me had been fly fishing in Sun Valley, and knew he lost his son. Decided shortly there after to retire to SV, and did in July 2003–Bill

Shout-out to all first responders and their families that weathered the storm of not only showing up that day, but to all those who worked in hazardous conditions well after, often paying the same price as those who came before. We will never forget.
If you’ve never been to the new memorial site in NYC, it is something to behold.

When I watched the second plane hit I was in a local gun shop. I thought UBL was probably responsible for it, I had recently studied his wanted poster at the local post office. Nobody in the gun shop knew who he was. I wound up over at the PD, never noticed there were that many TV’s in offices. A young officer asked me what I thought, I told him we were at war. PD kept us on a short leash for a long time. Months later I showed up for a Caprock Canyon hog hunt and the guide looked at my duty rig and black rifle stashed behind the seat of my truck and just shook his head. I remember it like was yesterday, I’ll forget my name before I forget that day.

I was a Guard at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. After the second plane hit the World Trade Tower, things changed very quickly. I got a rifle out of the Arms Room, and was stationed in a building watching the front gate of the Plant. I remember a line of cars leaving the plant. Only necessary people stayed behind. At the time I did not know that flight 93 was very close to the Plant. Thankfully we were not a target! Maybe, the passengers prevented that. I guess we will never know. I heard the call that the flight attendant made to Her Husband. I don’t believe I heard a braver voice then Hers. I was just amazed by Her tone in the fact of what She was enduring.

I was 15 and just starting a new job when John Kennedy was assassinated, I cryed that day, I was 53 on 911 and just opening a new r.v. business, I cryed that day, and I still get emotional thinking about these times.
