NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. I was on my way to school at the time and when I turned on the radio I had heard a plane crashed into a building, but I couldn't figure out when or where. As I listened, I found out more information. I called my mom and spoke with her briefly then went to class. By the time I walked into my first class, the second plane had struck. My professor tried to complete class and then someone shouted down the hall that a plane hit the Pentagon. After the instructor dismissed class. I immediately went to my job on-campus and called my parents. They both work at a refinery and I was worried because at the time we were hearing reports of other planes. I know it sounds silly, but I was terrified of something happening to them. I wanted to come home, but they urged me to stay put. The rest of the day I spent glued to the television set in utter disbelief NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. I believe I take less for granted these days and truly appreciate my family more. I am also more vigilant about my surroundings and more scared about something happening to me. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I believe the heroes and martyrs should be remembered 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, I did both at my apartment and placed one on my car. After September 11th, I take the Pledge of Allegiance much more seriously. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
