Still hard to accept that it even happened after all these years.

I watched a portion of a show called, "Attack On The Pentagon" recounting the events of 9/11. There were 125 people in The Pentagon who perished. There were 59 innocent people on American Airlines flight 77. The memorial put together after the attacks was well thought out. There's a mass burial of portions of people identified as loved ones from The Pentagon and on the plane through DNA matching. The "remains" that could not be matched to the innocent were NOT buried at the memorial site. (Those were the remains of the 5 evil, coward hijackers.) It was impressive the work that was put in to MAKE DAMN SURE no terrorist's remains made it into the honored mass burial site. The only person who's remains were NOT found and positively identified were those of a three year old little girl who was on the flight with her parents and sister (Dana Falkenberg). I'm glad you included ALL the separate lists of all those who perished. Some survivors of the Pentagon attack have mentioned they feel their tragedy doesn't get as much attention as do the World Trade Center victims. Personally I believe they're wrong. 9/11 has me thinking of all the innocents who died on that day and those who died later from a variety of related calamities. We should NEVER FORGET. God Bless the USA.

After watching this video our FBI/CIA could have prevented this from happening.

Darryl Worley sang, "Have You Forgotten?"

Sadly, far too many people have. Others just think, "Some people did something."

We watched network TV this AM and, at least, ABC's GMA didn't mention the catastrophe that happened on 9/11.

Lost three guys I worked with in my past life. Oddly, their last names all started with "S". Poignant to see them in print again. THANK YOU, ERICK. Imagining the horror they felt and the frantic calls to family tears me apart again. They were good, hardworking, warm and helpful men, all. Rest in Peace...

President Biden is in Vietnam today must be time to purchase Christmas gifts and I am surprised Kamala’s not with him.

I always dread this day because I know I'll feel those raw feelings of horror that I had then as I watched this unfold; but NOTHING I felt could compare to the families and friends of those taken. I honor them today. My prayers are for them. May God use your grief for His glory. You, more than the rest of us, have the ability to bring something good out of this tragedy. We will not forget this or YOU.

Thank you, Erick.

I have never been able to watch a movie about it . Still can't 22 years later. I still think about horror of what those people on the planes must have felt and also the bravery of Flight 93.

Let's roll.

You did an excellent job of putting all the names on your mail today as many people with have family or close friends on this list that they will want to look at and remember them and how they miss them.

Blessings to you and your family this day for all you do.
