NMAH Story: Story

I remember and will always remember exactly where I was when I first heard the news of what had happened. I was returning from the University of Sussex towards Eastbourne (South East England). At first disbelief of what had happened, and only realising the true horror of the events when seeing the news at home. Realisation that today was the second anniversary has inclined me that I have not yet paid my respects to the victims properly. Therefore my thoughts, prayers and hope goes to all the victims and their families

NMAH Story: Life Changed

It has made me much more appreciative of the value of human life and its fragility. It has led me to question why humanity At least part of it), which pronounces peace and love, can still inflict suffering on its own kind through terrorism, warfare etc.

NMAH Story: Remembered

I believe that amongst all the vistims and those involved on that day should be remembered and supported. Above all that the event should not be forgotten or allowed to become less emotive

NMAH Story: Flag

I believe that the American Flag though still essentially holding the same meaning now also acts as a symbol of what happened (remembering particular when one was hoisted at ground Zero on the wrecked aerial)
