911DA Story: Story
I am a 32 years old German girl, I serve
in the German Air Force. I was at home because I had a broken foot. Usually at 3 pm they showed a special tv show so I waited for it like every day. Suddenly they interrupted the show to send the pictures of the world trade center. From now on I saw everything live on tv. I cried and needed a glas of whiskey to keep my hands from shaking. I called the ranch of my friends in Texas, just to talk to them. In fact, I woke them up, they didn't know yet. We could not talk for a long time, we cried. I still have a hard time to think about it and to see the pictures on tv. I feel so sorry about all the victims and the survivors who suffer everyday and never be the same again. I hope we get all of these terrorits, I wanna live in a world of peace, I love America, like everyone who has ever visited it. I have many friends there and I feel like an American. We all do in these times. God bless us all and gives the power to the people who need it.
