Senior year of high school in my autos class, we sat there for over two hours watching it all. I remember Mr. Serrano saying over and over "this is a day that no one is ever going to forget, were at war boys"

I was getting ready to leave for work when it popped up on every news station and radio station. It was kinda weird how the sky was usually full of planes and then it was deafly silent. There is a airforce base close by and the F-15 were buzzing over head all day. I will never forget that day for sure.

I was working for an excavation company after graduating from college. I was repairing a sewer line. I will never forget that day. Probably one of the reasons it took me so long to find a job in engineering. It truly was a sad day.

I was asleep till My mom yelled up and said a plane had just hit the towers. I thought she was BS'ing. Then when I turned on the tv. Oh $hit. I called my unit to see if we were getting activated and then started packing my crap. Wasn't until 2003, then I got deployed.

I was in my 7th grade History class doing a terrorist intruder drill, where we get away from all the doors and windows, ironic? I just remember my teacher walkin the the room crying saying we were under attack. I will never forget that day.
