9-11: Decades later

 Today, 10 years ago, many people gave their lives to save many more. Many, many acts of kindness, courage, and bravery were shown throughout. When two hijacked planes whammed into the Twin Towers, anarchy broke out. Many severely injured, and many, many more dead. But, thanks to the bravery of hundreds of firefighters, about 20,000 were saved. The beloved buildings collapsed, killing many more.
 This is not the end of the 9-11 story though. A third plane was hijacked too. It was turned completely off course and hit the Pentagon. More civilians were injured and killed.
  And, as if this were not bad enough, yet another plane was hijacked, Flight 93, and was said to be headed for the State Capitol Building or even the White House! The passengers, however, were not about to let this happen. All 33 passengers stormed the cockpit and took over. Instead of hitting the important buildings, the plane crashed into a field in Pennsylvania. Many good people were killed.
Let us all remember what bravery and courage they had!
God bless all those who lost their lives and the firefighters too! May we all remember their bravery!
