''The September 11 attacks were a series of four coordinated suicide attacks upon the United States in New York City and the Washington, D.C. area on September 11, 2001. On that morning, 19 terrorists from the Islamist militant group al-Qaeda hijacked four passenger jets. The hijackers intentionally crashed two planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City; both towers collapsed within two hours. Hijackers crashed a third plane into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. A fourth jet, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania before it could reach its intended target in Washington, D.C. after the passengers attempted to take control. Nearly 3,000 died in the attacks.''

I would personally like to thank the brave firefighters who saved hundreds and either nearly sacraficed themselves or did for the lives of the innocent.

We grieve the deaths of the innocent people in the 9/11 attacks and celebrate the bravery of the "Let's Roll" men.

This is a attack that tore the US, ripped a gaping whole in our heart, an attack that shall not be forgotten.
