    We will never forget or forgive.

    Remembrance and Service

    A quarter century after the September 11, 2001 attacks, 100 million Americans are too young to remember the day that changed our city and nation forever. It is our shared promise — made 25 years ago — to never forget so those born after 9/11 learn its significance and enduring legacy.

    It doesn't seem that long ago. It's one of those times we all know exactly what we were doing, where we were, and who we were with.

      You may be to young Johnny but it is like when Pres. Kennedy was shot. Freshman in high school for me remember it well.
      911 our military was putting pieces of the buildings with things they were killing and destroying over in the sand box. 'Remember mother friggers.'

        I'm (only) 62 years old, so I missed the Kennedy assassination. Apparently, it was the same sort of shock as we experienced with 911. Even 25 years later, I can recount almost verbatim what was going on in my life the moment the planes hit. We all can.

        At the time of 911 had left active duty Army and was in the inactive reserve with no plans to ever return. 911 changed all that. It reset my way of thinking from a civilian mindset back to military. I went back in the USAR and stayed for the next 18 years till they FORCED me to retire. I still miss it.

          I'll never forgive George W. Bush for letting it happen
