No Sir, don't think I'll ever forget that day. I was just about to go on terminal leave the 15th of that month, but that and following events changed my retirement plans, my career, my life plus I lost several good friends in the follow on events. I lay that day right up there with Pearl Harbor

This morning a couple local fire departments had their aerial trucks set up with a flag hanging between them when a bald eagle landed on top.

Definitely never forget fellas, we were working on the east side of Manhattan when we heard all the sirens, ended up on top of the building we were working under, watched the second tower fall from not to far away.

Not to turn this into a huge "political statement", but we really need to remember this at the mid-term elections. If we think we can be lax at our borders in today's day and age, we have effectively forgotten or ignored what happened then! Just because 9-11 didn't involve illegal entry doesn't mean that it is safe for us to assume that a future event couldn't be a result of the laughable "vetting" process and the illegal entry that is out of control. The best protection against terrorism is a strong and unified America (culturally, economically, politically)! To be strong we need to know who is coming into the country and for what reason. We have a process for immigration, we need politicians who have the guts and patriotism to enforce the laws we have. If we have issues w/ existing laws, then change them, don't ignore them! It would also be nice if people gaining citizenship would appreciate it and be extra patriotic because of their gained opportunities here! It is unbelievable that we would tolerate the viewpoint that America is not great or has never been great!

7 of the animals were on expired visas. https://www.breitbart.com/big-govern...ever-deported/
Interesting interview with James Woods, he was on a dry run with 4 of the animals a month before and reported it to the FAA.
I'll never forget the day or where I was.
