I was under Bill Clinton's desk, waiting for Sarah McLachlan to show up. Turns out she was a Russian spy who used her sex appeal to coerce me into framing Clinton as a homosexual to eliminate Hillary's chances for election. Not what I was expecting. Long story.

I had just got to boys & girls club before school 3rd grade a friend of mine came and grabbed me he was in a teachers class room watching he news then it happened we sat and watched..... Scary day it was the school all the base kids went to so all of them were soon taken home that was when it got freaky.
It's hard to believe it's been 10years almost, it seems like it was just a few days ago.
God bless all the families and friends of the ones who lost there life's that day!

Wow some of you are youngins...

I was driving to work up in the mountains at a ski resort (Hoodoo for any of you locals). It was about 4:30am and I was listening to the radio. Heard the DJ come on talking about a plane crashing into the WTC.

First thing that came to my mind was "this guy is going to get fired, you dont joke about shit like this"... Listened for another 30 minutes or so and then got out to jump on the D-8... Didnt hear a thing further for the day until I started coming down off the mountain.

Sometimes I think its not as real for me as others because I didnt get to sit there and watch all the horror.

Worst part for me that day was coming home...

I walked in the door and my wife was on her knee's in front of the TV (6 months pregnant with our daughter) crying, my son (not quite 2) was standing behind her with his hand on her back. He did not understand what was going on. Only that his momma was very sad and this would help.

I have no idea how long she had been there, but her face told a very sad story.

Went back to work the next day and next day and next day... Sad, but I never got to really watch the news about it.

RIP all those lost that day, and all the armed service members lost fighting back against the bastards that did that.

was working in the rockville md. area. for a company that made directv recievers so plenty of tv feeds around..

hear about the first plane, kinda brushed it off as a huge oops and went to a meeting, second plane hit..hmm not good stopped the meeting early and went out to watch some more, then the pentagon got hit.. shit, pretty close to work, not good. I decided to stay at work for awhile longer since i figured the roads would be a mess with them evacuating DC and all but i guess it went pretty well and fast. wife at the time was pretty pissed i waited to get home lol

as for no planes? ha! we were right in the edge of the loop the F16's were making around DC and holy crap theyre loud when they pass over at a five hundred feet at the most. :scare2:

lots of helicopters going around too, they always fly 3 at a time between dc and camp david and would go right over the apartment i lived in.

one of the scariest things? coming home.. it took me right past one of the entrances of FT. deitrick and there was a tank parked in the entrance with the barrel leveled at windshield height down the road.. i was sweating bullets driving by that for sure. gee... do i really want to keep driving at the tank? i kinda have to to make the turn rigtht in front of it to make it home..

I was at work when my dad came out of the office and said a plane had just hit the World Trade center building. Me and a few guys we had working for us went in the break room and turned on the tv. Strangest day I ever had at work all we did was watch the news. All we could do was sit and watch and worry about all the lives being lost right in front of you. Being 19 at the time with quite a few military friends and family you knew they where going to be deployed somewhere so I also worried about there safety.

The only day in ten years that I called into work sick. I called in at 6:15am. C.S.T. I got out of bed about 9 am.,and watched all day. Couldn't make my mind if I wanted to be PISSED off,or SAD. Too many Emotions,that day. May God have mercy on the souls lost that fateful day. And as for the Son of a BITCHES that commited that horrific crime. KILL'EM ALL,AND LET GOD SORT"EM OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!:DD:

I was in the Indian Ocean on board the USS Carl Vinson near the southern tip of India. I was on watch in the engine room when it happened. We answered full speed for about 12 hours after to make it into the North Arabian Sea, where we spent the next 112 days. We launched the first planes into Afghanistan, and had 83 straight days of combat flight operations. Needless to say, things were much different when we finally came home.

I was out in the field pulling a potato lifter, and was wondering what the hell is the world trade center. When the pentagon got hit thats when I really got:edit::edit:

I was doing a brake job on a 4 axle 53' trailer when one of the other mechanics ran into the shop and changed the radio station we were listining to. Everyone stopped and listened to the radio. And i was thinking this is no accident.The guys in the shop were pretty quiet the rest of the day.
