Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was not at the World Trade Center or any of the other site's. I was at home watching T.V. and when it came across I went numb, I could not move, it felt as though every emotion in my body was frozen. Then it hit me and I began to cry uncontrollabe, the sorrow I felt for everyone. At first for all the families who had lost Loved ones, them for all American's,Because I thought if I felt this way, every person in America would also. It wasn't just that day but from that day forward, evertime I think about it or I see something on T.V. or hear a certain song, I alway's begen to cry, like right now just thinking about it.I feel as thought I am a child again with no power to do anything. I have never felt this way about anything in my life. This has brought me to my knees, I just feel useless. I hate that other people who don't even know us, can judge our country and be able to do this kind of thing to innocent people. I don't feel I'll ever feel as safe as I once did. God Bless Us All.

I saw that the first building was on fire and as I was asking her what happened, I saw the second plane hit the second building. I had just giving birth in July and you could imagine my horror when I heard that a third plane had hit the Pentagon. I have family in New York and my husband's cousin is employed at the Pentagon. Thanks to alot of prayers and GOD's love, they were return to us unharmed. My husband is military and had just left home to go to work. I called his job and cried out to him are we going to war? He immediately retuned home and had signed out our children from school. We spent the rest of the day just thanking the LORD that we were together. One last thought...."To all the families who lost love ones and friends, my family sends our prayers and thoughts out to you all. They thought that they have beaten us down, but they have only brought us closer and made us strong. GOD BLESS AMERICA.....

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Polly's Notes re 9/11 My name is Polly Fischer. In June of 2001 my husband Martin and I bought a time-share apartment in midtown Manhattan because we no longer wished to make the drive back to Philadelphia on late evenings after a long day in New York, and by 9/11 we had spent many happy days in New York museums, theaters and restaurants, and had met some friends and relatives there. After 9/11, I mentioned to my husband that I already felt like a citizen of Manhattan and I felt an obligation to go there to pay my respects to those who had died and those who were working at ground zero. Since we were leaving for Europe shortly we went the following week, and immediately went downtown. My first shock was the realization that we could no longer take the subway all the way down and that we had to walk pretty far, and many emergency vehicles of various kinds kept passing us headed toward ground zero. As we walked, the air got "thicker" and I had to put my scarf over my nose and mouth to keep out the "dust." But as we got closer, I really saw the heartbreak and sorrow expressed on all the hand-made signs everywhere...a photo of a smiling young woman with long dark hair holding a toddler and wearing a pretty summer dress, labelled, "have you seen my wife? Please call ! ...another, a professional portrait of a middle-aged fellow dressed in a business suit..."have you seen my Dad?",..dozens and dozens, maybe hundreds of them posted close together, side by side and one above the other, as we came nearer to the site. Some people were handing out fliers advertising for their lost families, some just stood there holding their pictures face out for us to see. And as we got closer we saw one after another, stores with everything inside coated in a thick layer of a grey substance so you had to strain to identify the things underneath, dead places, like Pompei. And in the open doorways of many Of the stores sat silent melancholy looking people, perhaps the owners waiting for insurance companies to come help. It seemed to me that the most pitiful store of all was what had obviously once been an elegant beauty salon all coated in this thick gray stuff, hair-driers, perfume bottles, chairs, tables, vials and cans and tubes of cosmetics and lotions, and even the floor. How strange. When we finally arrived at the "end," as close as we could go, there stood a crowd of people, all ages, all colors, all classes, all styles, and all seemingly struck dumb, standing there absolutely silent, staring at whatever we could see of the workers and the work (they were dismantling a huge piece of the steel of one of the two towers) and the tiny church almost next door (said to be the oldest church in New York, St. Paul's, I think. When I could no longer stand, Martin and I walked silently away and the crowd parted silently to let us through. A few blocks away a young Frenchman with a bicycle rigged rickshaw picked us up and took us to the nearest subway entrance.

I was at my desk, working, when my office manager walked in, and told me a plane had struck into the One of the World Trade Center towers. I could not believe what I was hearing, and turned on my radio in my office. I called my mom, she was at work, and she had heard too, and was crying, then I heard the radio, and a man was screaming that another plane had hit the other tower. I was totally befuddled. Two of my co-workers that shared my office with me were listening with me, all of us in awe. I could not function normally the rest of the day. Thank goodness my extension barely rang, usually swarmed with high call volumes, my office was silent. I was 19 years old when this tragedy occured. So young, but now, so much more endowed with knowledge, on how cruel the world can really be...

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I am a 19 year old student. When the first plane struck, I was in my car driving to the school library. I was listening to a local DJ by the name of Bubba the Love sponge. He had a TV in the studio as he broadcast and he was in the middle of a sentence when he and his co-workers started gasping and saying "Oh my god, I can't believe it". He then announced that an airplane had been crashed into one of the world trade towers. Before the second plane had crashed, Bubba had tracked down the telephone number to the world trade center and called to tell them a "little bit of smoke is coming out of your roof top". Almost immediatly after he said that, the second plane hit. It didn't seem real to me and I thought it was a joke. When I arrived at the library, I went on the internet and tried to find out if CNN or Fox had posted anything. Someone ran into the room and yelled "The pentagon has been hit by a bomb". A TV was carried up the stairs and we watched the news as the trajedy carried on. When I left the library, some of the classes were being let out and I remember hearing the shock and disbelief in the voices around me. One girl claimed that she heard that the perpetuators were going to hit somewhere in America every seven minutes until America had been destroyed... But America is much more than a country and can never be truly wiped out. I have read several websites claiming that September 11th was "not that big of a deal". To me, it was a big deal. It was the first attack on american soil. We lost more than 3,000 of our friends, coworkers and members of our family. Firemen and Policemen willingly gave their lives in order to ensure that just one more person was able to get out alive. My favorite saying post-9/11 was the coca-cola billboard that said "We live as many. We stand as one". America united on that day. We didn't care about race, religion, or petty things. We only cared that we were American and we were proud of it. We gave our money. We gave our time. We gave our prayers and we shed our tears. God Bless America.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was in English, Mrs. Vance's class, at WAshington IRving Middle School. School just started so we were doing intros and such. I just moved here from KOrea so I got scared because I was just on a plane. The news came over the announcements but I didn't know what the World Trade Centers were. When I heard about the Pentagon I was very scared because my dad works there. However, he was in a bomb shelter in the White House because he was having a meeting there at the time. When I found out the twin towers were in NYC I got scared again because my cousins live there. I didn't talk to my parents until I got home and we all sat in the living room and watched TV. I remember at the middle school everybody was really scared and running around. That next class I had to take a bus uo to WEst SPringfield High School to take Spanish 4 but I didn't because they wanted me to stay at the middle school. I sat in the office and watched a flood of parents come in and demand that their children be let out. Many students left the school with their familes. A lot of students I saw walking through the halls were crying. A TV in every room except classrooms where there was a class was on and teachers were watching it intently. It was scary and I really didn't know what was going on. This event reminded me of PEarl Harbor.That next year I had to get on a plane to go to Texas and I got scared thinking another terrorist would just take over the plane and make us crash somewhere. I believe that although this event was a horrible atrocity, it made America stronger and more united. I hope that something like this will never happen again. This event also made me aware and the hatred for Americans from certain groups of people in the Middle EAst.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: That Tuesday started out as any other day, but my children, huband and I were excited and packing. We were to go to Boston on the 12th to visit family. My husband called from his cell phone in the car just after 9 am and told me to put on the news. My children (aged 1 and 3) were watching Nick Jr. so I had no idea what I was going to see. The image, so horrific and strange, didn't make sense to me. My husband is a private pilot who trained here in South Florida at the same place the terrorists trained in Lantana. He knew it was no mistake that the tower was hit. We got off the phone and I continued to watch and saw the second plane hit. My phone rang again and it was my father. My step mother was at her usual post at Boston Logan airport that morning. She works for United Airlines. She loaded passengers on the very flight that I watched hit the second tower. Among the passengers were a handful of her friends, headed to Las Vegas via Los Angeles. They planned to be back on Friday and she was covering one of their shifts. My father told me what we had already suspected. The FBI was at Logan Airport with my step mother going through the flight passenger list and all of the other things that had to be done immediately. We knew there would be no trip to Boston the next day. But that was the least of it. My step mother was faced with the task of notifying all of the next of kin of the passengers of what had happened. She spent the next 10 days with the FBI going through all of the minutea of the morning of the 11th. We made our trip to Boston two weeks later and have gone on with things as usual. I heard from a cousin in New York that 4 of my cousins were to be at the twin towers that day but for various reasons were not there. One cousin, a computer technician was to go there first thing, but at the last minute changed his schedule to go there in the afternoon. He had a clear view of the towers from his other clients office and witnessed the entire thing out a window before evacuating. Another cousin was working from home due to morning sickness that day. Cousin number 3 missed his train and did not arrive at all to the towers that morning. A fourth cousin was to have a job interview there that morning but had rescheduled to the day before. God held us all in the palm of His hand that morning. SOme people ask where God was during the entire tradgedy. He was there, where He always is, with all of us. At the towers and beyond.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: By the time I woke up California time, wich was seven thirty in the morning both tower had been hit and were raging with fire. As soon as I wake up in the morning I turn on the Today Show and I saw this horrible image on my television and could not beleive my eyes. I couldn't leave the television, knowing that I had to get ready for work. I was debating if I should even go to work or take my daughter to school. I had kind of figured that we were pretty much safe in California so I decided to get ready for work and also get my daughter ready for school. Riding to work Iwas in a trance and you could look around to everyone in their cars going to work also in a trance. We just could not beleive what was happening to our country. Looking back now it seems like everything wasjust too perfect and calm, take it America had it's problems but life was good. I was in New York a year before 911 and I still fell as though I had had a preminition . Within the course of maybee an hour on one of the days that I was in the city my girlfriend and I saw three to four sets of twins. I didn't think anything about that, after that some other things happened to me while being in New York and I just wanted out of there, my spirit felt weighed down and I couldn't tell what was going on with me,I had a funny feeling about the city, I didn't want to fly home, I was afraid to. I was suppose to fly out of Kennedy and ended up flying out of Jersey International Airport. I was so releived to get back to the west coast. Looking back those moments while I was in the city I truly feel like God was trying to tell me somthing and I just did not know how to decipher what was going on around me. My prayers go to all who have suffered from this tragic, tragic incedent. Always remember that God and your loved ones are always with you.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My name is Holly Cavanaugh and I am a freshman at Cleveland State. I was a junior in H.S. when the 9/11 tragedy occured. I was sitting in French class when the planes struck the two towers. The Senior Social studies teacher at my High School came in and told our French teacher that two planes had struck the World Trade Center towers. At first, we laughed and said, "Oh, he's just teasing us." But as I got up to go deliver a message to the office, I walked in and they had on the televison images of the burning towers. I could not believe my eyes. I walked back in and said, "it's true. The WTC towers have been hit and they're on fire from the jet fuel!" As the bell rang, we all rushed to our next classes and immediately everyone turned on the TV's. It was ten minutes into the next period when I saw the south tower collaspe. I lost it, opened the door that led to the outside and screamed with anger. But then I heard a low rumble. I looked up, and saw a plane heading towards Cleveland, but it was low for it to just be passing by. And I mean, it wasn't a small plane that we see land at Geauga county Airport every now and then. This was a JET-LINER. I stood there and thought, and I shook my head "No." I went back inside, and I saw the North Tower fall, and I screamed again. However, we all heard a low rumble again and looked outside. That plane was back. We all looked at each other and we were like, "Uh oh." We would then learn, twenty minutes later, that plane was Flight 93, the plane that crashed in a PA field. I will never forget that day. Ever. Every time I flip channels and I see on program on Discovery or some other channel that talks about it, mental images of those towers burning flash into my mind. I truly believe though, that after this, you could tell that everyone in America became more proud of our Nation that before.

Tell us your story: That morning I had awaken extremly early for no apparent reason, for me I was a ninth grader in high school and I wouldn't have gotten up if my mom was throwing things at me. But this morning was different, I first got up at about 2 o'clock, went back sleep, got up at about 3, then I stayed in bed till about 3:30 when I turned on the television. At first I thought it was just really early news, but when I turned the station it was on every single station. I just thought my battery in my remote was dead. But when I stoped it on MTV I thought I was going to be listening to some music, but the T.V. was talking about WTC. I had no idea what WTC was I thought I was watching a movie. I ran to my moms room and she was already outside watching, I sat down on the couch and asked her what she was watching and she explained to me what had happened. I was so stunned Ididn't know what to think or say, I was basiclly mind dead that whole day.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember I'd just been joking with a friend of mine when I walked into third period and saw my teacher with a look on his face that I'd never seen there before. It was somewhere between anger and fascination. The radio was on in the back corner of the room, as it usually was, so my teacher had been one of the first in the school to hear about the attacks. I dropped my books in my usual seat and listened to the radio and the nervous chatter in the classroom for a moment. I surprised myself by thinking first of my brother (whom I usually think of as an annoying guy I have to deal with whether I want to or not). He lives and goes to college in Manhattan. I knew that both his appartment and his school where not really near the southern tip of the island, but I still thought of him first. My next thought was my mother and our standing family rule to check in at a time like that. I asked my teacher if I could run over to the payphone now, beat the rush when the rest of the school found out. I sprinted across the school, dialed so fast I almost screwed up my own home phone number. I had a short conversation with my mom, who told me that my brother had checked in by email and that he had actually stood on the roof of one of his school buildings and seen the second plane hit. My mom thanked me for checking in and I told her I had to go because other students were already starting to gravitate towards the phones. I knew my family was safe and I wanted to give the others a chance to call home. The rest of that day everyone was in a daze. The administration refused to pass on official information, for fear of scaring us, I suppose, and most of the classrooms did not have radios or televisions. The result was wild rumors flying all over the place. The Golden Gate Bridge had been hit. The White House was blown up. Somebody bombed the Pentagon. As period after period passed the rumors got worse and more and more kids were signed out to be taken home by their parents. I even know a few seniors who just hopped in their cars and left. I don't think anyone blamed them. A certain section of students roamed the hallways randomly yelling such pithy, inspiring, and educated phrases as "NUKE 'EM ALL!" "JUST NUKE THE BASTARDS!" and "KILL ALL ARABS!" While I may have agreed with the basic sentiment of anger, there were times that day and in the following weeks that I wanted to throw textbooks at some of those kids. I suppose maybe that was their way of dealing with some of the fear, though. The history teacher who's classroom I had first heard about the attacks in continued to make the current issues part of the class discussions. We debated the "Nuke 'em" idea and the implications that the attacks would have on personal freedoms. I found that the discussions were a wonderful way of sorting out many of my own feelings on the subject. At home, my little sister told me the story of how her school administrators (at the local gradeschool) had misinformed the students to the point at which they were panicked and even more scared. (That principal was someone else I wanted to throw a textbook at.) We watched the news for about four hours solid, my dad spending much of his time in front of the TV along with the rest of us. Halfway through our fifth straight hour, while I was making a poor attempt at homework, I suddenly couldn't stand to watch or listen to the news any more. I litteraly screamed at my dad to turn the TV off. He agreed with me and that was that for the night. For the next few days we did watch the news, but not as much. None of us could really handle watching that footage over and over and over and over again . . . so we turned the TV off. This past year has gone by almost without my noticing it. This may be a function of my becoming a senior in high school, as I've heard that becoming a senior seems to happen to you almost before you even make it into high school in the first place, but I think it has something to do with a shift in my focus from obsessing so much about college and life after college back to the life I am living now. I went and joined the marching band and the choir, two things I'd always meant to do but never quite got around to. I begged and pleaded for a flying lesson for my 17th birthday because flying has always been my great dream and I wanted to make sure I did it. I consciously decided to make sure I hugged my mom and my dad and my sister and even my annoying brother more often. Maybe it was leftover fear from the anthrax scares and the treat of a followup attack, or maybe it was just a heightened awareness of my own mortality in general. Whichever, it definitely changed me. And I think that change may have been for the better. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: As we've relived the tragedy of one year ago,the haunting pictures keep replaying in our minds. My wife and I were having breakfast,planning on taking a drive to a shopping center. My cellphone rang and it was a friend from New York. He asked if we were watching the news about the plane(supposedly a Cessena) that crashed into the Trade Center. As a former New Yorker who worked downtown, I immediately went home to watch CNN. I knew a number of people who worked in the North Tower and was horrified to see the events unfolding. As we began to call family in New York,my suspicions were confirmed as the second plane hit! Now the realization that our "home" was under attack began to sink in! My wife became ill watching the Towers burn and my thoughts turned to my kids. I wondered if they were aware of the tragedy and,if so, how they were handling it. At that moment, my daughter called from her phone and said the school was having an assembly to talk to the students. She said my son was across the auditorium and he wanted to speak to me immediately. I decided to go to their school and bring them home. Upon arrival, cars were lined up all over school grounds with parents rushing in to get their kids. It was chaotic at the school trying to find my children and get out quickly. We found my daughter,who was distraught,but no sign of my son. Suddenly, he appears,frantic and white as a ghost. His first question was to inquire about the friend who called me,thinking he was in the Towers. When I told him that my friend had moved uptown, he began to cry as he thought the worst!! We went home to spend the remainder of the day watching the news,silently grieving for those who were lost. One of those lost was a gentleman I worked with for a short period of time.The day after Thanksgiving 1987, I brought my daughter into work and she spent most of the day on his lap. He made her a ball out of rubber bands and attended to her as if she were his own. She's 18 now, and on a recent trip to Ground Zero,saw his name on a poster at St.Matthews. The realization of who he was and remembering the rubberband ball was very emotional for her. I hope the President was right when he said these people didn't die in vain. It would be a tragedy compounded if the scum who did this aren't found and killed!! Hopefully our country will recover and the family and friends of those lost will find some solace in the knowledge that their loved ones will never be forgotten!!

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Experience of 9/11 I was getting up for school, still not used to the early morning schedule. I knew it was going to be a good day. Math was over and I was heading off to gym when I noticed that the teachers weren?t acting as normal. They looked, as they were afraid of something and extremely worried. I was finished for gym when my gym teacher Mr. B told me ?that a plane has just hit the trade centers?. My jaw dropped to the floor. Now first I?m thinking the plane was a small plane and the trade centers they were saying were the N.J INTL Trade centers. But no it was a big airliner and the trade centers were the World Trade center in N.Y. City. Around 10:00-11:00 our new principal called us up to the auditorium and told us about the world changing experience. All the teachers were worrying about friends and family members, and a lot of emotions were all about. Some students were using laughter and jokes to cheer up. Around 1:00 my mother called the school and came and got me out of school. All my other siblings were in the car. My Mother brought us down to Rita?s Italian Ices because she didn?t want us to watch the news all over the TV on almost every channel. Later that day at dinnertime while we were all eating there was no one talking throughout the whole entire night from the big shock! The next morning no could say anything, it was just eat, shower, and off to school. As time past news of 9/11 just died off and people just continued with there normal lives. And finally everyone just began to forget about it. Until now the one year anniversary is coming the news and memories are coming back.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Since the attack of September 11th, my life has not been the same. I have a new outlook on life. When I am in a car or on my school but, I see a whole new world. Flags and ribbons are all over the place. September 11th is not just a regular day; it is a memory that will have an effect on us forever. The tragedy has made me look at my family differently. Most families lost a dad (or other family member) in the attack. Some days I just want my dad to leave me alone because I am in a bad mood or I do not want my dad to help me with my math homework. I realized that some families had babies that did not get to meet their dad. Some families had an unborn child and neither the dad or mom got to see their child and the other way around. Now I try to make ever moment count with my dad. Red white and blue are the colors that represent our nation. Everywhere I go I see at least 40 cars or buildings with a patriotic symbol. Whenever I see this it makes me wonder. Did these people ever hang flags outside their houses before? Or did they just decide to put them out after 9/11? But at the same time it makes me feel good inside because it shows us that our nation is strong and not afraid to show everyone who we are. 9-11 has defiantly affected everyone in America. There is now tighter security at the air ports to make sure everyone is extra safe. Many Americans are confused or mad at the people who crashed the planes. They might be asking ?Why would anyone want to do this to anyone?? Every ones lives have been changed in some way since 9-11. It not only affected me but almost every American, physically mentally and emotionally.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: the morning of september 22, 2001 started out as a normal, beautiful almost fall day. actually woke up with a lot of anticipation and excitement for the upcoming weekend. went off to work at a job that i love. soon after arriving at work, i called a friend who works in washington dc. as we talked on the phone, finalizing plans for the weekend, i heard some talking in the background. could not really make out what was being said. my friend said to me, did you hear that???? my response was, i did hear talking, just don't know what was said. that's when i found out a plane had hit the world trade center. we actually joked about an air traffic controller going crazy. little did we know what actually happened. we soon hung up, with the promise to speak to each other tomorrow. some of my co-workers and i went downstairs where there was a television. i will NEVER forget the shock of seeing that second plane hit the world trade center. that is an image that will stay with me forever. there was a huge crowd around that television set and there was not a sound to be heard, except for crying. then came the news about the plane hitting the pentagon. i ran back to my desk and tried to call my friend, no answer, which was not very comforting. we were all allowed to go home for the day. i raced home and turned on the television and was glued to it for the entire day. i tried calling my friend's cell phone, no answer. finally, much later in the day i received the e-mail that put my mind at ease. he was okay and at home. it was only later that i learned of the struggles of the people in washington that day, everyone being sent home at once, the very, very crowded metro and all the hours it took to get home. truly a horrendous day for america. as more details were being revealed thru the coming weeks, i would have to say what really got to me, after trying to comprehend the number of lives lost by this senseless act, is all the "09/11 babies" that would be born and grow up never knowing their fathers. i guess it gets to me so much because my daughter, who is now 20 years old and 7 weeks away from her wedding day, had to grow up without her father because of a senseless accident. my husband was killed by a drunk driver in 1982 when our daughter was only 4 months old. i did have him here with me when she was born. he was taken away all too soon. it was not easy raising a child by myself and it is not what we planned. i feel so much for those "09/11 widows and babies" they will have a rough road ahead of them. that's when you find out what you are made of. god bless all the surviving family members and friends of everyone who lost their lives on 09/11. we will NEVER forget!!!! this would not be complete without mentioning all the heroes of the day. the crew and passengers on the airplane that crashed in pennsylvania were truly brave heroes. knowing they were going to die had to be the most horrible thing imaginable. even though they knew they were going to die, they gave everything they had to make sure others didn't. to me that is the ultimate act of bravery. all the firefighters, police and just regular people who helped, you are the best. may god bless each and everyone of you. the USA is a much stronger and closer nation since 09/11/01. may we always stay that way and fight the evil in the world.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was sitting at home with my four year old son when my sister called. The only thing I heard was a hysterical "turn on your t.v." I watched the second plane crash, and can't begin to describe the immense feeling of panic. I'm not sure how long I sat with my mouth hanging open before I got my son in the car & drove to my sister's, all the while glancing up at the sky in fear. We sat the whole day in a state of horror, anxious, glued to the t.v. Shock froze me to my seat where I cried, and felt completely helpless because I wanted to do something.I wanted it to not be real, but as the hours passed, the disbelief turned into a choking sorrow. Though I didn't loose anyone close to me on that day,I will never be the same. Even as I sit trying to write about it, the powerful emotional surge makes me breathless. I will never be the same. I live every day for my family, and pray for the lost ones. I know they say time heals all wounds, but how can there possibly be enough time for this one?

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: September 11 hit us like a ton of bricks. There is simply no better way to illustrate the complete and total shock I felt on that fateful and unfortunate day. That morning, I had begun to awaken from a deep sleep. In my semi-conscious state, I was beginning to hear words and phrases coming from the T.V. that I left on. "...a plane has just hit the World Trade Center..." That cut through the grogginess and I sat upright in bed. I wondered what kind of pilot could lose sight of the Twin Towers. I was seeing it all with my own eyes, yet the reality of it all had not fully sunk in. It was like watching a movie. Then I decided to get dressed. When I returned, I saw the South Tower erupt in flames. This was no accident. We were being attacked. From that point, I sat watching the latest developements as they happened. The third plane crashing into the Pentagon, the center of the U.S. military. I didn't think it could get any worse. It did. Yet another plane was (heroically, it turns out) brought down in nearby Shanksville, roughly 2 1/2 to 3 hours from Pittsburgh. It was closer now. Downtown Pittsburgh was evacuated. People were in a mad rush to get home. Parents pulled thier children out of school. The events of that day are now ingrained in every American's memory. Within hours both towers collapsing, the Pentagon on fire, thousands dead. No matter what happened, things seemed to get worse. Then, like a Pheonix rising from the ashes, the damaged American spirit returned stronger than ever. People tried to help any way they could. Some held vigils, some went to Ground Zero to help attempt a rescue, some made donations, children collected pennies. That is what I remember most of that tragic day. American solidarity was renewed in a big way. GOD BLESS AMERICA. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
