Where were you during 9/11/2001?

You just reminded me something.Before I use to go out hunting all the time,but not since after that day.Maybe I'll get back into it.

Ya, My son and I are going to put in for tags next year. I'll probably go, just to take him!

Senior year of high school. My radio was my alarm so I heard a little about it in that brief moment, but was so tired I didn't really process it. When my buddy picked my up to go to school he said that a plane had hit the pentagon, but I thought it was a small plane like a cessna. When I got into class it was on the TV and that's when I really found out what was going on and saw the second tower get hit as many others did. Spent a lot of time trying to get in touch with my uncle who worked in the North Tower. Found out from my mom a couple days later that he didn't make it out.

Damn man, sorry about your uncle. I have no words that will make you feel better, but know that he is included in my prayers and thoughts everyday I live. We won't ever forget those we lost.

On a cruise ship docking in Istanbull. Watched the second plane hit while we were pulling into port.

I was also in high school and in journalism class of all things..this was in Michigan..naturally in journalism we would watch the news..no one did a thing the rest of that day

God bless the families who lost friends or family and those of you who have served or are serving!

I was on my way to school. They actually had everyone come into school and then after a few hours they decided everyone should go home.

After 9/11 we knew who our real allies were...

I was at my girfriends house. My Dad hit the alert on my Nextel to wake me up(I was working nights). I woke up to the first of the falling towers.
He told me we would be going to War shortly and I may be recalled due to my Navy NEC (MOS for non Navy folks). I had been out less than a year.
I wasnt recalled
but damnit if I didnt want to go back and get some revenge.

I still want to go back and exact revenge on those motherfuckers in the M.E.

On my way to get my daughter a gal ran into my truck turning the bed into a teepee at roughly 45-50 mph. I had a mild concussion and broken shoulder.
I still drove the truck home, albeit tons of leaking fluids, and my ex brought my daughter to me in case we went to the cabin we had.

I dont think the folks I was pushed into realized what was happening because the lawyer was complaining to his wife he was going to be late to a meeting
and I thought it was f*cked up because the girl that hit me had a bone sticking out, didnt break the skin though, and he hadnt even called 911 at that moment.

I was in the field during a Mission Readiness Exercise while I was stationed @ FT POLK. We instantly stopped our rotation and headed back to barracks to start packing in case we got a call!

The first plane hit while I was at work, then on the way home the second plane hit. Got home, turned on the TV and was so pissed off that I couldn't sleep that day.
