September 11, 2001

America is in mourning today, the 19th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York’s World Trade Centers. This photo and the accompanying quote are on Facebook today.
“On this day... 19 years ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same.”

I think we all know where we were when this happened. A sad day.

We will never forget, Lou Ann. It still makes me want to cry. It was a devastating day.

[Milanie]

And it's definitely something we always need to remember and also to remember how we felt as a country as a whole - together - not like today.

[Domenico Dodaro]

No, we will never forget. I do remember every single second of that day, even if lived on the other side of the Atlantic

Such moving words Lou Ann...a day never to be forgotten & still makes us gasp with the horror of it all. Nineteen years already, it seems like yesterday when we watched the terrifying scenes unfold live on our screens.
There are a whole generation today that are too young to remember yet we will never forget. Fave.

[Corinne]

Such a sad anniversary ...

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It is a day that totally changed this nation. It's incredible to think that 19 years have passed. Now instead of enemies without we have enemies within the ransack our cities, destroy homes and businesses while murdering innocent people. The tragedy continues but in a different shape and form. Thank you for this timely post!

I saw the photo on Facebook too. Indeed a day we never will forget. At that time I had never been to or visited the USA yet, but even in Europe it made a big impact on me and many others. I will always remember exactly where I was that day..
