... and I will remember.
Twenty years ago this morning I had showed up to work on a house as a contractor. We started working, and as we do, we turned the radio on to listen to the Bob & Tom show out of Indianapolis. Except they weren't being funny, they were broadcasting what they were seeing on their screens in the studio. The homeowner was there as well, and we were like everyone else - in shock. As we heard more, we realized that this was no accident. The question we all had was ... "Okay, we're at war. Who are we at war with?"
To those who survived that awful day, to those who lost loved ones, to those who raised their hands and volunteered to serve their nation and have done so with honor ... we have not forgotten you.
To those who supported this act against civilization, who cheered when the towers fell, and those who have acted without honor regarding our country ... we have not forgotten you, either.
Remember the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, the rest of the World Trade Center complex, and remember the words that will forever echo through a field in Pennsylvania, paid for with the blood of Americans. "Let's roll."
