I WAS AT HOME GETTING READY FOR WORK ,AND WATCHING TV,WHEN THEY SAID APLANE HAD CRASHED INTO THE WORLD TRADE CENTER.THEN THE SHOWED IT .THEN YOU SAW THE OTHER ONE HIT.IT WAS UNREAL COULD NOT BELIVE IT AT ALL.IT WAS LIVE TV.THEN I WENT TO THE BANK,AND THAT IS WHEN I HEARED ABOUT THE PENTAGON.ONE OF THE LADIES THAT WAS STANDING IN LINE STARTED RUNNING OUT THE DOOR SAYING THAT HER HUSBAND WORKED THERE.I WENT TO WORK.I WORK AT THE FBI ACADEMY ,AT QUANTICO VA. I GOT THERE JUST AS THE WERE CLOSING DOWN EVERYTHING BLOCKING THE ROADS.I GOT TO WORK JUST IN TIME.IT WAS SO UNREAL.I AM A CHEF OUT THERE.SO WE WERE SHORT HANDED,AND HAD TO FEED ABOUT 700 PEOPLE.NO ONE COULD LEAVE YET.WHEN WE COULD LEAVE IT WAS SO STRANG NO PLANES FLYING,DARK NO LIGHTS ON.THE MARINES WERE OUT STOPPING CARS,YOU DIDT KNOW WHERE THEY WERE.IT WAS A VERY SAD DAY FOR ALL. GOD BLESS.
