NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. It was 2nd period Honors Biology class when they took me out of class and the Assistant principal had told me that my father was O.K. I asked what do you mean he is O.K. well there was a plane crash well 3 of them 2 in to the World Trade Center and one in to the Pentagon they are believed to be terrorist attacks. And there is rumor one crashed in Penn. But your father is fine. My first thouhgt was he was probably on a flight, since he's a world wide traveler, but how would he be alright. They then said he called he wasn't in the crash or hurt. I proceded with questions asking do you know what time it occured, my dad works around that area in the morning. Around 9 oclock eastern time. My dad got off work at 8:30. All I could think of was I'm so lucky he's still here and alright. I didn't think of the thousands of other victims and family's who would not be that lucky till minutes later. And for that I am ashamed NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. Definately the airports, I used to fly 10 to 12 times a year. I still fly often but security has changed dramastically, for better. Now you can't get past security with a belt on. There are army men walking around with rifles. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? That America is strong, so very strong. 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? Until that day we never really had a flag. When I got home from school a small but,American flag was hanging by our door.
