9/11

The terrorist attacks on The United States of America on September 11, 2001, were the most
devastating since Pearl Harbor in 1941. However, these base, brazen, cowardly attacks that were meant
to demoralize and weaken the American spirit only served to bring us together as a country, renew our
love and respect for our police and firefighters, send our troops overseas to strike at the heart of
terrorism, and just generally make us appreciate what being an American means. They didn't make us
weaker - they made us so strong that they'll never break us down.

A crew surveys the crater left by the impact of Flight 93 in
Shanksville, Pennsylvania. A brave group of passengers
overcame the terrorist crew and caused the plane to crash into an
empty field, thereby thwarting the terrorists' plans of causing more
destruction to American landmarks.
