Yes we did. My dad actually drove 45 minutes home from work and put up our flag becasue nobody was home, and drove back. Today my school had a ceremony where we lowered our flag to half-mast. Now every time I ook at a flag I think of our nation standing together against any force that may prve to be a threat.

I live in asuburb of chicago so i go there alot on the weekends for whatever reasons. After september 11th, I didn't go for a while. And even now I will go downtown, and my stomach will get a little queesy when I look up at the Sears Tower.

I think that the unity of our naion should be remembered. Following the tragic our country rallied together and we were all united. That bond/togetherness should be remembered.

It was kind of ironic. I first witnessed the event in my US history classroom. A teacher ran in with a stack full of papers, slamed it on my teacher's desk and quickly ran out. My teacher read it aloud and thought it was a joke or drill at first. Then to see if it was real, we turned on the TV. I had no antenna atatched to it because it was only meant for movies. When it came on there was a fuzzy picture of one of the trade towers smoking. Our class got let out and i ran down to the student center and rigth s i got there i saw the other plane hit. It was a replay of the second plane.
