Thanks for sharing, Josh. It touched me. I would like to hear your Irak stories too.
At that day I just came from training school, totally fed up. It was very exhausting and shitty day at school so I was full of bad and angry feelings on my way home. When I opened the door my dad came to me and said that there was chaos in New York, talking about plane crashes and hostages and shit. I went into my room, switched the tv on and saw this giant cloud of dust over New York and heart the news...
@ralfonzo83 ..about what happened. I was shocked, had tears in my eyes. And I felt so incredibly DUMB that I was pissed off all day because of my own minor problems at school. I'd say that day kinda changed me. It changed the whole world.
Thanks for sharing your story... To put my story short I was shocked and so scared that I went and got my kids out of school that day. What I got out of it all was that life is so short and count your blessings. I cried a lot today remembering how I felt that day and thinking of all the people that lost their lives and their families. It was a very emotional day...
My older Brother was on the Nimitz at the time, he served 20 years in the Navy. My younger Brother, Army veteran of Desert Storm, he was a civilian at that time.
I was on my way to a class in the morning when I heard the news on the radio. I felt helpless. When I arrived to my class, 2 guys in my class were in the national guard and they left class and they were called to duty immediately.
Thank you, you story gave me a different prospective.
Josh this was so touching and to know that the Germans were laying flowers at the base is awesome!! I loved how the world wasn't divided then. You are right we were just americans that day. I will never forget the day and thanks for serving our country Josh!!! See ya at ST5!!!
I remeMber it well. I was in work, working onboard trains. I had to change trains and called into the messroom for a drink whilst waiting for my second train of the day. The tv was on and I saw the tower smoking and then the second plane hit. My first thought was. WOW AWESOME MOVIE TRAILER. SPIELBERG sure makes them good, Then it dawned on me, this was no movie trailer. I was numb. My next job was looking after loads of american tourists on my next train, I let them use my phone, (cont)
@paul1967uk (cont) > none of my American customers could get through to their loved ones on my phone, not my phones problem but due to millions trying to contact family and friends, Everyone was sad. Some were crying. It was a day I will never forget, And we must never forget everyone, no matter what their nationality or religion is who have been affected by this tragic event.
:( that is deffinitly a day that the whole world will never forget. I was in grade 1 when it happened but i remember that day like it was yesterday. My heart goes out to the friends and families <3 May all of the innocent souls lost that day rest in piece. And a huge thank you to all of the heroes that day.
I will never forget that my brother yelled "God bless america!" after the news at home...
