I was in high school. Saw the second plane hit on live television. I just remember feeling terrified that we were going to war and I’d get drafted. I was also angry and willing to do my part but man that was a scary time for a kid that age.

I will never forget! I was on this thread during the event. WE WERE ONE! That day was awful but we worked through this event. Man I have been on this site through so many events. God I stared at my TV for hours in disbelief. We are the USA and we prevailed. God bless all of the first responders who sacrificed that ungodly day. Man.

Too real, I really don’t like to watch all the documentaries and stories about 9-11. I can watch all the WW2 documentaries about all the terrible things that happened back then, but 9-11 was just too close to home. I live near DC and saw the Pentagon the day after. Flown out of Dulles a million times. Stood on the roof of the World Trade Center just a year before.

I was on CP as well that morning. Gotta hand it to Clint. He was the first one to call Osama. Noticed there were a lot of names in that thread I haven't seen post in a very long time. We may have lost them as well.

9th grade, I remember us asking our football coach if practice was canceled and he said "when pigs fly".

Flew home from the home opener against the Raiders the day before this happened. Weird AF.

Still watching documentaries on (I think) Nat Geo. One of the viper drivers was talking about how they launched without any ordnance, and her flight lead told her that he'd hit the cockpit, and she'd need to hit an engine. Thankful for the guys that took back the plane and put it down in Pennsylvania instead of forcing two pilots into a suicide mission to prevent another strike.

My wife and I visited the memorial this summer. It was very moving. I would highly suggest you go if you get the chance.

I was sitting in the great American sports bar at the mall of America. Maybe not when it happened, but they had coverage on.
