I was sitting in my 2nd period class and all of a sudden the teacher next door comes running into there saying that the world trade center has just been hit. Mr. Carpenter turned the news on almost immediatley and I felt my stomach drop as I watched the trade centers callopse. A goood friend of mine, Justin Henshaw was there in new york doing some modeling for polo and he was only a couple blocks away from where it hit. I was told that he went to the trade centers and the firefighters were letting him go in with them and help get people out. It was unbelievable. Justin came to visit us a couple months ago. He os now in the army and is alrady at the top of the list. This experience changed his life and so now hes trying to help save others in this was against terrerism.
