We shall never forget....

On September 11th 2001 the United States was attacked in one of the most cowardly acts of violence possible, when four planes were hijacked, two destroying the World Trade Center's Twin Towers, one hitting the Pentagon, and a fourth crashing in the fields of Pennsylvania after the courageous acts of gallantry of the passengers onboard, preventing the final plane from reaching its intended target.

On that day nearly 3000 Americans and some foreigners lost their lives in the most brazen act of hatred this country has ever seen.

I remember it like it was yesterday, I was startled awake when a dear friend called and vomited information about what was going on, that we were "Under Attack" I went and turned on the TV to see the first footage of the towers being hit, less then an hour later they had both collapsed, the true magnitude of what was happening finally sank in, I felt sadness, anger, unmitigated rage at what had happened, I wanted revenge, to make any and all involved pay for these acts of wonton cowardice of attacking civilians.

Now, ten years later, Bin Laden, the cold mastermind of the attacks is dead, but the War on Terror rages on, with no end in sight, we must never forget the day the towers fell, and those who continue to sacrifice for our freedom.
