911DA Story: Story

I was in the personnel office of the hotel writing a
security statement regarding an employee. I heard someone
say something about a plane crash in the personnel directors
office. I walked in and she said a plane has hit the world
trade center. I helped her in getting the station on the clock radio just to hear them say a plane has also crashed
into the pendagon.
At this moment I thought that world war threee had started. As I walked back into the other room to finish
my report it really didn't seem to be all that important any more.
I went home and spent the next four days with my wife in front of the tv when we were not at work. I cried for four
days straight. I still do when I think of the loss to all
through this tragedy. May God continue to bless America
