NMAH Story: Story

I was asleep when the first airplane crashed into the World Trade Center. my mom came in my room and woke me up and as I walked into the living room, I saw the second airplane smack into the World Trade Center. I was so surrprised and tired that I thought that it was an Arnold Shwarsinager movie. Only until I noticed that the bottom left hand corner had a live signal did I relize that it was all true.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

Not really, other than the fact that within the first four months of it I was afraid to travel.

NMAH Story: Remembered

That so many people survived something as horrible as that. I think I read somewhere that the death toll was smaller the recovered/ got out ok toll. And that dogs helped recover people in the rubble.

NMAH Story: Flag

I think we put it out for a week or so after the attacks. My feelings toward the flag haven't really changed because it is simpley a symbol.
