14 years ago today, nearly 3,000 people died in the September 11 attacks.Bells will toll and tears will flow as the nation marks a dark day in sorrowful yet hopeful ceremonies.
Fourteen years ago today, terrorists hijacked passenger planes and rammed two into New York City's World Trade Center, and a third one into the Pentagon in Washington. A fourth jetliner crash-landed on an empty field in Pennsylvania. By the time the carnage was over, terrorists had killed 2,977 people in one of the deadliest attacks on American soil. People, buildings and planes fell from the sky. Terrified strangers became friends as Americans united on a day that changed the world forever.
Today, like every other anniversary after it happened , a resilient nation will look forward to the future, but remember the past. R.I.P to the departed souls
