On this day in 2001, the city, the country, and the world united together in the face of unimaginable tragedy. Today, on the 13th anniversary of 9/11, we gather together once again to honor and remember the 2,983 men, women, and children who were killed in the attacks of 2001 and 1993. As part of the commemoration, please observe the following moments of silence:
8:46 a.m.: Hijackers deliberately crash American Airlines Flight 11 into floors 93 through 99 of the North Tower.
9:03 a.m.: Hijackers deliberately crash United Airlines Flight 175 into floors 77 through 85 of the South Tower.
9:37 a.m.: Hijackers deliberately crash American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon.
9:59 a.m.: The South Tower collapses.
10:03 a.m.: After learning of the other attacks, passengers on United Airlines Flight 93 launch a counterattack on hijackers aboard their plane to try to seize control of the aircraft. In response, the hijackers crash the plane into an empty field near Shanksville, P.A.
10:28 a.m.: The North Tower collapses.

I was working third shift at a gas station and living at home. Naturally at the time of the attacks I was sleeping. When this first plane hit the first tower my mom came into my room and said a plane had crashed into a buidling in new york. I was half out of it and not really completely there and thought it was just some minor accident or something. My mom then came in and said another plane had crashed into the second tower and told me she was starting to get scared. I woke up and came out to the living room and watched the tv not believing what I was seeing. The local news would cut in from time to time and say that Kennedy Space Center was a potential target. My dad works for Lockheed Martin at the air force base right next to the KSC so naturally my mom was scared. I spent most of the time trying to calm my mom down and tell her it would be ok. For a while they weren't letting anybody leave the base, but finally they did and my dad showed up early afternoon.I can't believe it has been nearly 20 years since this tragic day. So much has changed since then. I will never forget that day and the unity seen that day amongst Americans that I had never seen before that and haven't seen since. I have been to the pentagon 3 or 4 times in recent years for the remembrance ceremony and it made me emotional every time.
After all that was finished I began to think about what had happend. I was angry. I couldn't believe people would be so cowardly and go after people that had nothing to do with anything. I just couldn't understand it. The next day I went to the Air Force recruiting office to talk to the officer there and was so close to joining. I prayed about it and for whatever reason I felt as if God did not want me to go.
It was a crazy 24 hours, i was angry for a while then that just turned into sadness and hoping we would unite and do something about that....of course we were united for maybe a month and now 5 years later we are more devided then I think we have ever been before. Its sad really.....

Especially thinking of @PAmedic and any others who have had a more personal experience with events that day.Tried watching some video of it this year. Still can’t get through the radio calls. Esp FDNY. Too hard to listen to them.
Can not believe it's been 20 years.
