911DA Story: Story
How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience.
I was at work. Someone had heard that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. The T.V. in our break room was turned on and everyone packed in there to watch it. We saw the second plane hit and watched the towers fall in awe and disbelief.
Has your life changed because of September 11th, 2001? If so
tell how.
It has affected the economy and interest rates are at an all-time-low which has caused me to work a lot of extra hours over the past year. That is how it has affected me.
What do you think should be remebered about September 11th? I think we should just remember how fragile life is and how vulnerable we are. We should also remember the brave people who lost their lives and the innocent victims in that terrible tragedy.
Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th? Have your feelings about the American flag changed as a result of September 11th?
Yes, I flew a flag. No, I don't think they have changed but I try to make more of an effort to put the flag out for holidays: Veterans Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July.
