9/11/2001
23 years ago today.
Never forget.
Many people hate us for being so great.
Many more come here... because we're so great. (yes, I know, a lot of them uninvited)
However,
Let's make America great again... for those who gave so much to do it the first time.

Remember it as if it were Yesterday & Always will.
Unfortunately, too many "Americans" have long since Forgotten.

be nice if the country came together again like it did on 9/12. all the division sorta disappeared for a while.

Remember sitting in college and suddenly the professor walked in and just cancelled class.

8:46 North tower struck
9:02 South tower struck
9:37 Pentagon struck
9:59 South tower falls
10:03 United 93 crashes
10:28 North tower falls

Less than 2hrs to shake this country to its core and change life as we knew it, atleast for some, forever. I, for one, will never forget what happened and where I was and what I was doing that morning.

I work in aviation, each year on the anniversary I send out an email to all of our staff in rememberance of September 11th 2001.

I realized today that many of our staff were either not born or too young to remember 9/11 and it's impact on aviation and this nation.

I haven't. I was sitting in American History class in high school when we got the news...

My crew and I were drilling a tower foundation for a Hamilton County Ohio 911 communication tower at a Firehouse in Anderson township when the Chief came outside and said get in here you need to see this, we were dumbfounded as the results of these sick sob’s came to fruition, I’ll never forget that day, where I was,or the sacrifices of the heroes that ran in to help. May God show favor on their families.

We were taking a math exam and the instructor came in and said "There's some strange stuff going on in the world, folks. Check it out when you're done."

I was going to the office late that day and ended up not going for a week.

Can still hear Miss Miguel, age 3, asking, "Why is that building on fire?'

Feeling down about 9/11? watch this. Its a serious feel good short. Operation Boatlift will raise your spirits. It is an amazing story of heroism, and the American Spirit of helping one another.
They rescued more people that day than Operation Dunkirk in WWII. ( allied soldiers backed up to the sea by the Nazis, and they had to be rescued by boats to escape)
Operation Dunkirk rescued 339,000 soldiers in 9 days. Operation Boatlift rescued over 500,000 in less than 9 HOURS.
