911DA Story: Story

its odd i just left the t.v stories and found how sad i was to hear all this and it brought it all back as fresh as it could be. i was at work the day of september 11th i remember it was just another day i work at an aircraft defense company we build sections for the c17 airlifter. it came over the radio some one said they just it the world trade center then again then the pentagon. we were so scared for ourselves for the people going thru it we just stopped dead in our tracks at work no one could work some people left to go home we called our children a man i work with his daughter was at the pentagon when it was hit. when we came home that day my family we prayed . for the nation for the people and the families who died. i walked outside and looked at the sky it was so clear but at the same time it was different life was different my heart tonight one year later feels just the same i am proud to be an american i love god and my country to all god speed.
