On September 11, 2001, the United States had a terrorist attack. Before then, I never knew what a terrorist was, I was only 11. I didn't know about the World Trade Center. But when I saw a plane fly into it on TV, I thought it was a new action movie. It wasn't. It's been four years to day that the terroists attacked our nation. But it wasn't all a loss. I'd like everyone to remember Flight 93 and the passengers who fought back. Before 9/11, passengers were encouraged to stay seated if a plane was hijacked. Well, not anymore. The Flight 93 passengers took back the plane and crashed it into a field in southwest Pennsylvania. There were 45 people on board. Some say the plane was headed for the White House, some say otherwise. But thanks to those 45 people, we will never know. If they had not fought back, where would that plane have gone? They saved many lives that day. Remember United Flight 93 and everyone else who died on this horrible day, four years ago. God Bless.-Britt
