Title A name given to the resource "September 11: Bearing Witness to History" Stories Submitted Online Description An account of the resource Visitors to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History's, "Bearing Witness to History" online exhibition submitted these reflections beginning in 2002. NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? I think that the thing that should be rembered the most about 9/11 would have to be the heroism of the men and women of the Police and Fire departments. These men and women all showed why they are the true heros of this day, and how they gave the name "hero" a great meaning once again. The way they layed their lives on the line to try to save the thousands of people in the towers and pentagon was a true heroic act that only certain people could bring themselves to do! the 354 firefighters from the FDNY and he many police officers from the NYPD that lost their lives show how much they care for their job, and also how much they put into saving others before themselves. I think they all showed a great strength and courage to try to save lives and should be rembered greatly as some of the true heros that this country has ever had!! 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? After the events that occured on 9/11 my family and I flew a flag otuside our house for several weeks. The flag the we were flying I think took a new meaning to many people around the country, and I was one of them. The flag before 9/11 was not really of that much importance to me. i mean i knew what it was about, and what it symbolized. After 9/11 however, the flag meant something more, and symbolized more than it ever had before to me. It became something that when i looked at it, or pledged to it made me feel a sense of thankfulness for where I am and how I am living a free life in the United States Of America. September 11, 2001 truely did change my feelings and outlooks on the flag, but most of all the symbols that it represents about our wonderful country!!
