9/11 Memorial
9/11, one of the saddest day in America.
A day we will never forget. A day in which everything began normally but it
ended so tragically. Many loved ones were lost.
Many families were tore apart by this one day. 19 hijackers, 4 planes, 3
buildings hit, 1 field filled with airplane parts, and about 3,000 people died
in those attacks. American Airlines
Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, two of the four airplanes, were
crashed in to the North and South towers of the World Trade Center. The first
aircraft to crash into one of the buildings was American Airlines Flight 11
which crashed into the North tower at 8:46 a.m.
United Airlines Flight 175 crashed the South tower at 9:03 a.m. American
Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. The last aircraft
United Airlines Flight 93 did not hit a building but while its passengers were
trying to seize control of the airplane again; it crashed into a field near
Shankville, Pennsyvania at 10:03 a.m. All these attacks cost the lives of so
many that until this day we still remember them. I remember that the first time I heard of 9/11
or when I was fully able to understand it was when I was 8. My sister had
rented a movie about it and we all went to see it. I cried because it was
horrible seeing what had happened in those moments.
Reflection: Seeing people throwing themselves of
buildings, people crying filled with blood and
dirt, seeing the plane crashing into the building and imagining the
thoughts of all those people in the planes and towers when they are about to die, it’s just sad you
wish there was something you could have done but you can’t. I cry every time I see
a documentary or movie about because it’s just tragic seeing how 3,000 people
died. It’s horrible what those 19 hijackers did but that didn't mean the U.S
should have gone and killed many Iranians in the war because of these 19 did. 9/11
is a day we should remember and keep in mind because you never know what might
happen in the next second of your life.
