Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I awoke that morning hearing on the radio some women screaming about an airplane. I instantly remember in 1945 a B-17 slamming into the Empire State Building. I ran downstairs and turned on the TV. I just stood in shock and dropped the remote. My best friend came in to get some breakfest and give me a ride to school. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the TV. After a minute of shock the second plane slammed into the other tower. I just dropped to my knees and couldn't believe what was going on. We watched for about another 20 minutes and got in my friends Jeep and rushed to school. Since my friend and I didn't have a 1st period we were able to watch the attacks. When we got to school very few knew what was going on. I got to class and told everyone what was happening. That whole day all we could do was hear the reports of car bombs, more planes, or planes headed for the west coast. At football practice all we could do was just sit real quiet. No one wanted to talk. An Army helicopter flew over twice and that was the only thing in the sky we saw that day. The next day on wensday our military recruiters were at our high school. About 200 guys from all 4 grades were in a huge line getting info or signing their papers if they were 18. I am proud to say that my friend and I have decided to enlist in the United States Marine Corp and serve our country in this global war.
