Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had heard of the first plane to hit the WTC on my car radio on my way into work. When I got to my office, I joined most of my co-workers in the conference room to watch the new coverage on TV. We sat in shocked dismay as the second plane hit, and then later as the towers crumbled and fell. It was unbelieveable. We felt and heard the impact of the plane that hit the Pentagon while we were in the conference room, but didn't know what it was. A co-worker whose wife works at the Pentagon called him on his cell phone to tell him what had happened and that they were evacuating. We then went to the rear side of our building, and could see from the rear windows the smoke arising from the Pentagon. It seemed that the world was coming to an end. An hour later, we were all told to evacuate the Lab and go home. My commute is about 45 minutes long, and all the way home I prayed for myself and my family and all those that had to have been killed or horribly injured in all the attacks and their families. I still can't fathom the misery that the victims families have had to bear, and on the first anniversary of this terrible trauma to our people and our country, I pray again that nothing like this can ever happen here again. God bless America! Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
