Brian: I remember what took place on this day, 21 years ago.
Bruce: Yeah, that terrorist attack in the World Trade Center in New York.
Melvin: Killed so many people. I was in 5th Grade at the time.
Carl: I was only a Freshman in high school. My teacher told me what happened in New York, and then I thought it was a plane accident, but then I found it was a terrorist attack. I got so scared I wanted to go home.
Colin: I was a Senior in high school. It was so sad. But, we must never forget 9/11.
Jessica: Yes. 9/11/2001.
Me: America Strong!
Jessica: Good thing I wasn't in high school. I graduated two years before it happened. Class Of 1999.
Iris: I was in 4th Grade, when it all happened. But, we came on strong! The first responders did what had to be done! We as Americans always prevail!
Lakeshia: I was in 6th Grade at the time. I lived in New Jersey, and I got scared because, I didn't live too far from New York. I actually saw the smoke from the destruction from the attack. I got so scared, that I hid in my closet.
Penny: I don't really remember that day. I was only a toddler then. And, I lived in Rochester, which isn't anywhere near NYC.
Brandon: I don't remember 9/11 at all. I wasn't born then.
Brian: Exactly. But it was a very tragic day. Let us not forget the lives lost, and remember the heroes did what needed to be done.
