I just found this thread after reading a post about the Flight 93 movie that is coming out today. Just thought it would be fitting to bring the thread back again, in membrance to those on Flight 93.



On 9/11/01, I was on my way to Temple for my 9 o'clock class. I was on the Ben Franklin Bridge (a bridge that takes you from South Jersey into Philly) when I was listening to the radio. Suddenly they interrupted the music to go to their sister station in NYC where they were talking about the first plane. While they were talking about the first plane, the second plane hit. All you could hear was screaming, crying, and confusion. I was stuck in the middle of the bridge when this was all happening....and I was scared out of my mind. I just so happened not to have taken my cell phone to school that day, so I could not get in contact with my mom or father. I was particularly scared for my father because he works in the buildings in Center City Philly sorta like the twin towers (Liberty Center) and I had no idea if there were more planes coming or where they were going. There were all these rumors going around that they were shutting down the bridges in Philly. I finally drove to my grandmother's apt and called my parents collect to let them know I was ok. I didn't get home until much later that night.


9/11/01 is a date that all of us will always remember. God Bless America and our Troops!
