At work. We watched the whole thing from just a few minutes after the first plane hit. Saw the 2nd one live.

Just got home from a 16 hr. shift on the railroad and was just falling asleep on the couch when the first plane hit needless to say could not get to sleep after watching the events that happened that morning. Later Kurt

I was in the Quackapractors waiting room. An event that I will never forget. The Dr's father and I volunteered to go fight the terrorists in Afghanistan to save some young lives:th_biggun: but we were both turned down.:bang head:

I never had the pleasure. Plenty of others from my unit went up there. 3-6FA, DIVARTY and few guys I worked with out of 10th Group.

I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. That day I was sitting in the recruiting office, I was there because I was on my last thread. I had just gotten divorced, lost my job, broke, sleeping in my truck and going hungry most of the time. I had nothing to lose. Being there at that time was the best thing that ever happened to me. I left with a sense of purpose that day. Man on a mission with a heart full of anger and a belly full of nothing.

I lived in Manhattan near Washington Square Park...just a coupla miles north of the WTC. Just a few hours after the jets hit, I rode my Max over to the West Side Highway (which was TOTALLY empty) and looked down at the black smoke rise. I thought WWIII had truly started. Very very evil day. But it did unify the city, and the US, for a while. We all wanted the same thing...for the US to vaporize the Middle East.
