Looking through the list of names it is surprising that so many from lower floors were killed. Did they not evacuate? Hard to understand.
Got to remember that we have a generation that does not even know about 9/11.
Well she is paying for what she said. President Trump struck back.
and that they don’t know, is by design...
Brent James Woodall S-33
He was the starting tight end on the Cal-Berkeley team that beat Clemson 37-13 in the Citrus Bowl in 1992. Great guy. RIP.
My colleagues and I (our office on Connecticut Ave near DC) watched the smoke rising from the Pentagon. What a helpless feeling.
I’ll never forget the smell. Or the sound of fighter jets flying in anger above our cities.
Vecchnaya Pamjat,
Eonia imnimi,,
Leeyakun thikruha muabadan,
Kontakion in Tone 8
(to the special melody 'To thee the Champion Leader'),
Ye faithful witnesses, heroes who gave their last measure of love
In Shanksville, Arlington, and in Manhattan
At the Trade Center, ye joined the holy relics
Of Saint Nicholas and Saint Sava the sanctified
In a cloud that showed forth your last devotion
By your example we sing:
O Lord Jesus, be our comfort and strength.
“Let us hope that he died,instantly,of a heart attack while still in the air.”
I still cry because these people must have been so afraid. I pray that the Lord gave them comfort. And I don’t forget Peter Jennings bad mouthing president Bush as the 2nd plane hit the towers.
….and we elected a Muslim as President 7 years later.
It’s highly doubtful he died instantly of a heart attack.
I wish they knew who he was. Never was any definitive ID.
That is why the internet has become very important as the archive machine.
There was a special on a while back where they tried to find out who he was. I watched it but now I can’t remember what the conclusion was...
Never forget... sadly, America never learned anything from what took place.
Just look at what has taken place since 9/11 and where we are now as a nation concerning the threat of Islam and Muslim terrorists within our midst.
After all the Kumbaiya, flowery speaches, and “memorial services” were over, Islam and the socialist/communist left in and outside of America began a concerted, well laid, well financed campaign to promote Islam, NUTTER and SILENCE everyone proclaiming the FACTS and TRUTH about Islam, its blood thirsty founder Mohammed, its doctrine of violence, terror, conquest, and hate, and its blood soaked history.
While making Islam the wronged “victim,” and turning those expressing concern and exposing the genuine threat Islam poses into “the ‘REAL THREAT”: dangerous, “enemies of progress and enlightenment”; crazy Christians, and American flag waving “zenophobes” and “Islamophobes”,
Today, all over America, public schools and universities are openly, actively promoting Islam and indoctrinating our children and young people, while doing everything within their power to reject and stigmatize Christianity and America’s Judeo-Christian founding and heritage.
And the penultimate insult to everyone who died on 9/11, their families, and all of America: we now have Muslim congressmen who openly proclaim their antisemitism, and hatred for America, Christians, Christianity, Jews, and the nation of Israel while suffering no blowback, condemnation or consequences for their vile, hate-filled beliefs and rhetoric.
“Never Forget”... we never REMEMBERED. Tagline
Requiescat in Pace....
One of friends was working as a nurse at GW at the time. They worked on some of the victims. She told me that many basically “drowned” on jet fuel.
Another friend’s husband worked at the Pentagon. Luckily he had a dental appointment that morning.
I live under the flight path on Regan, BWI, and Dulles. When the flights were grounded, the silence just really hit home.
There was picture that day of a young NYC firefighter walking up one of the Towers stairs. The look on his face was showed a combination of duty and hopelessness.
I found out about 3 years ago he survived!!! That was a good day!!!
