I'll never forget it. It was an ordinary day. I was at work on base getting aggrivated by officers of the Airforce. Next thing you know all disaster teams were called to there place of contact. I was a member of the Medical control center (MCC). Captain Riley turned on the TV and we saw replays of a plane crashing into the world trade center. At first we were all just like, it was a simple accident. Then the building colapsed and the bulliten stated that it was a terrorist event. My heart jumped very hard. I didn't know what to say. All I could do was what I was supposed too. That is keep in contact with all other bases and figure out how we are going to handle it. I can't go into anymore detail, but I can tell you this. I was terrified, and I am now a civilian who is very concerned. We must all put petty differences aside and face the big picture. We are a nation which will be strong by working together, even if it's not by violating eachother by stealing and killing eachother off. Love eachother.
