sept 11 msnbc....

[cofi]

every year i watch the reruns on msnbc.....really makes me sad and brings back those old feelings...i was living in montclair nj during the attacks and watched the towers fall with my own eyes what a fucking awful tragedy my first wife was scheduled for an interview in that restaurant on the top floor and missed her bus she was on the ground minutes after the first plane hit had she made her interview she would have for sure been in the towers when the planes hit i remember the sheer panic i felt trying to call her for HOURS and all the cell phones were jammed up and noone could get through unfortunately she passed away 5 years later and although it was never proven im pretty sure it was complications due to all that dust

even ten years later it still feels like it was yesterday

so anyway no real point to this thread just sitting on the couch sad as could be

Flag of Honor I bought several years ago when we put a flag out for all the victims of that terrible day. Broomfield and Northglenn did a field of flags a few times-don't know what happened to that event.

Sorry for your loss, and I too feel that not only physically, but mentally, the scars from traumatic events can ripple throughout our lives. I fear for myself and other veterans with the exposure to burn pits- a similar hazard much like everyone in NYC during 9/11 exposed to the debris and dust. Glad you're in a more productive mode now, and hopefully the rest of your day you find something to keep your mind off the bad (I recommend maybe going and punching some paper, then come home and clean some weapons ).
