7 years, 9/11

RE: 7 years
I noticed of all the programing today that was the attacks, the Pentagon was mentioned only once and the plane that crashed into the fields out in PA wasn't even mentioned at all even though the death toll included the people from the Pent, and the ''forgotten'' flight in PA. I think it should have been brought up more in all the programs that were on.

well, we mentioned it here. just do what we can do I guess. I think flight 93 def. needs to be remembered. civilians gave their life to keep us safe. "Greater love hath no man, than to lay down his life for a friend"

my prayers went out to them and you know what makes me angry is that people dont think of the teenage and other soldiers that are dying and their parents are sad they where tough to wave goodbye to their son/daughter

I noticed that too Redhawk, about there being little mention of the Pentagon and Flight 93. I was at WTC the second day. I knew 8 of the firefighters and one of the police officers that laid down their life that day. I met them on several occasions atConventions and other meet and greets, even trained with a few of them and had the pleasure to sit down to ameal withthem the August prior. The man I mourn for the most is the Chaplian Firefighter Mychal Judge. What most of you may not know is that he is being considered for Sainthood in the Catholic Community.
Jeremy Glick was on Flight 93. He was one of the ones who tried to stop the hijacking. He called his wife just prior, and told her to stay on the phone, that he was going to fight them, and he'd be back. Jeremy never came back. He was originally from New Jersey but stayed in our community a short time. These men need to be more than just a footnote in history. 9/11 was not just about the WTC and Manhatten, it was so much more. No matter where it happened, it is tragic, and tragedies need to be remembered.
