Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On September 11, 2001, I got a frantic call from my daughter, Alaynna..."Mom, a plane just hit one of the towers at the World Trade Center. Mom, I am in lower Manhattan going to a training class...She went on to say, "we just missed being down there, we got the wrong directions." She said, "Oh, Mom...we would have been in the subway at the World Trade Center if we hadn't gotten lost". My heart stopped a moment...then I asked "are you okay? Are the people you with okay?" "Yes", she said, "we're just scared". Today, September 11, 2002...I have a new little granddaughter, Brianna...and I know that if it had not been for the grace of God, I might not even have my daughter alive today. My daughter, Alaynna, is also a member of the New York State National Guard, and she and her fellow guards women, Felisha and Tammy, security patrolled around Ground Zero and the surrounding closed off areas below 14th Street, for three weeks...sleeping the Jacob Javis Center. Felisha and Tammy leaving behind their little boy and little baby girl, to help...not only because they are in the National Guard, but because they are some of the best kind of Americans...some of the youngest and the brightest and the ones who will help to make this great country of ours even greater. I close with, 'MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS AMERICA!' A proud mother of a NY State National Guard member, Alester Pryor from Myrtle Beach, SC.
