Title A name given to the resource Library of Congress Stories Description An account of the resource A collection of more than 200 user-submitted stories gathered from the Library of Congress's "Witness and Response" exhibition staged in 2002. LC Story LC Story: Story Where were you on September 11, 2001 when you heard the news? (Please share your experience of learning of the events and what you did afterwards.) My wife and I were at the Indianapolis, Indiana VA hospital waiting for her to have her blood drawn. We were watching TV when we saw the first plane crashed into the WTT. I immediately said out loud that it was terrorist who flew the airplane into the building. LC Story: Memory What is your strongest memory of that day? Watching the airplanes crash into the buildings. LC Story: Affects How do you perceive that the events of September 11, 2001 have affected this country and/or you personally? Up until that event, the American people took freedom for granted. As a military retiree, they have never experience what we in the military have gone through to protect them. The American people, including our elected officials, never thought that this would happen in America. In my personal opinion and military experience, its a wonder that this didnt happen a long time ago. Even though this event was horrible, thank God that our enemies did not plot to destroy strategically targets at the same time, i.e. like the Vietnamese did in Vietnam. I believe after a while, we will let our guard down again. History repeats itself.
