NMAH Story: Story

I was getting up to go to school and my mom turned on the news. She told us all to come and see what happened. We came in the room just as the second tower collapsed. we were shocked and didnt know exactly what happened, the newss kept showing clips of both of the planes slamming into the towers. then the second tower collapsed and the news castor thought it was a replay of the first, until the tower was half way down. I went to school that day and most of my teachers just watched the news. The news kept showing clips of the planes hitting the towers and the towers collapsing.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

Yes because now I am more aware of global events and pay more attention to terrorist threats.

NMAH Story: Remembered

I think the people who lost there lives, and those who died when they tried to save others. I also think people should always be prepared, because if you aren't history is bound to repeat itself. Thats why we need to prevent further attacks by destroying those terrorist who try to attack us.

NMAH Story: Flag

Yes my family flew a flag outside of our house after september 11. I dont feel that my feeling have changed because I have always been patriotic and I used to want to join the naval acadamy or in the army but as I got older I have decided that other carriers would suit me better. I am still willing though to fight these people on their soil before they bring the fight over here. I am 17 and when I turn 18 I will sign up for the draft and if I am called to serve I will be willing to fight and maybe give up my life. If the fighting becomes worse or spreads to other countries and we need more men I will join the fight.
