Lest We Forget; Remembering September 11, 2001

A day of remembrance.  Lest we forget; Remembering September 11, 2001

 

We all remember where we were that morning, as the terrorism unfolded on live television.

 

But as days passed we learned more about the remarkable bravery of first responders who traveled into the collapsing structures, just trying to help.   And we learned about the bravery of those who would perish.

 

Now we remember all of this and also the families who lost loved ones, and those who lost friends and associates.  2,977 victims of this terror attack.  Some 25,000 injured.   September 11, 2001.

 

Lest we forget.
