Ten years ago, America lost its terrorism virginity. Again.
Our memories are short, so many Americans don’t seem to recall the tragic loss of 168 lives — including 19 children under the age of 6 — in Oklahoma City in April 1995. Or the 1988 terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, which killed 189 Americans in an explosion over the UK.
But 9/11 was America’s “Big One,” where 2,977 victims lost their lives that fateful day ten years ago. It is a day few of us will ever forget.

I remember the 911 attacks. I ws serving in the Military then ( ..and I continue to serve..). I DID, and STILL do, take it personally..because of all of the damage it has done since that time. Military personnel went across the seas, to protect our country…and several were senselessly killed or wounded. The memorials are not JUST names,..they are lives that were taken from us. Honor those brave individuals….don’t ever forget them.
