Tribute - Monday, Sept 11/17
Tribute
It was sixteen years ago, on September 11, 2001, that the United States was brutally attacked. Four planes were hijacked by terrorists. Two of the planes were sent crashing into the Twin Towers in New York City, a third plane into the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and the fourth into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania (as passengers took action and tried to take over the terrorists.). By the end of the attacks, the death toll had mounted to nearly 3,000, that included the 227 civilians and 19 hijackers aboard the four planes and 343 and 72 police and firemen respectively.The damage done during those attacks has had a lasting effect on the entire world, tomorrow we will recall the full impact of those events that unfolded. We will remember to pay tribute to those civilians’ whose lives were taken from us far too soon, and in such horrific way. We will remember to honour those police and fire who fought to protect, we will remember as a way to remain united.
