Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was at work that day, my husband a police officer was working at the aviation unit. He called me just after the the first plane hit the wtc, he was telling what happened when I heard some one in the back ground yell OH my God another plane hit the second tower. My husband told me to go turn on the tv. I told my boss what was happening and the radio started broadcasting the news. I work for the District Court and we started to get calls about whether we were still opened. Then we heard the news about the Pentagon and a missing plane. It was very unsettling because we live close to Washington DC. I remember calling my mom to see if she was okay and my nephew who was four at the time answered the phone and told me planes had crashed into the buildings. We were dismissed from work early and I made my way to my mom's house because my husband was still at work. I remember getting to my brother's house where my mom was and my nephew taking a picture out of my mom's wallet of my husband standing next to the police plane and telling me Uncle Pat's plane had crashed in the buildings. It was not until my husband picked me up from my brother's house that my nephew new that Uncle Pat was alright. I feel so fortunate that no one in my family was harmed, and so devestated for those who lost loved ones.
