NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. My experince of the sad tragedy was from my teacher's t.v. in Lang. Arts class. While working on our daily edit, a 7th grade teacher came in and whispered in to my Lang. Arts teacher's ear. Suddenly she ran to the t.v. and clicked on the news. While wondering whats going on I seen a plane hit a building. Not knowing what the big deal was, I thought that it was an accident of a plane hitting a building. Not realizing that it was the Twin Tower and it was done on purpose! I felt really bad for the people who must have died and my teacher beacuse she thought her brother was in the building while the plane crashed! NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Yes...my life has changed because of the sad tragedy! How? In that year I was suppose to go on a airplane to Disney World for vacation but my family and I where to scared that something will go wrong on our plane. Also I pray at night saying to myself " thank you god for keeping my family and I safe." After what had happend my family and I are closer than ever now, and much more loving! NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? Fire Fighters, Police Officers, and Medics should be remembered for the courageous attitude, by rescuing and help save lives that where in the building! To be honest I would never do such a courageous thing as what those people did. They all put thier lifes on the line! In any minute the building could have collasped on them, leading to death or broken bones! NMAH Story: Flag 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...we did fly a American Flag on a pole outside of our house. Also we had pictures of the American Flag on our door and windows. Since part of my family is very patriotic we even put flags flying out of my grandmothers car and also a couple of bumper stickers saying "United We Stand!"
