Love Blessings from unlikely places...

Thank you so much for this. I've seen many things on 911..but..this is new and very well done~

I was living in PA at that time. My husband was going to the Army War College...protesters came from all over...surrounding the army post we lived at- We were 45 miles from that PA field that plane went down in...
Thoughts were on this post at one point being a target like the white house..

The College that my husband attended that year was the US Army War College..."Not to promote War..but to Preserve Peace"~

Last year...I met Kim Stekafukis...her husband lost his life on 89th floor tower 2. http://www.ithaca.edu/icq/2001v4/ref...tatkevicus.htm She is one of the founders of "September Smiles". A widows organization that outreaches to our military families that outreach to our families here that have lost loved ones in Afgahanistan and Iraq...

I also met LTC Byrdwell....he wrote the book "Refined by Fire". He was trapped inside the Pentagon http://www.facethefire.org/
Wonderful man...and took care of our burned soldiers from Iraq last summer...send them money from his ministry....

We also have a triple amputee soldier...who plans to use his life to outreach other amputee's...Going through another surgery this past weekend...but his spirit would make you proud...

None of us will never be the same ....and we will never forget..
We just can't allow that to happen...
