Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My wife and I had been married a little over a year on that fateful day. I was running a bit behind schedule, drving down Dorchester Road to avoid traffic. Just as I arrived at Goodwin Elementry School the news came on the radio that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. I got on the cell phone my wife. We were speculating how some pilot mut have had a heart attack and flown his small plane into the building. As we were talking, news broke that the second airliner had struck the 2nd tower. At that moment, we both knew. Something sinister was happening. I turned around and went back home. We stayed glued to the TV the rest of the day and stayed up all night long. How did we allow this to happen? What could we do to help. The next day I started calling the National Guard only to find out I was too old to sign up. I can't tell you how disappointed I was. To this day and as long as we are fighting a war, I will support our efforts. All those people, the 2900, need not hae died in vain. The lives that were taken and given, uncovered our weaknesses and opened our collective eyes to the danger and cancer of TERRORISM which the rest of the world has been dealing with for decades.
