Twenty-one years. Thank you, Steve, for preserving this. The world is so different than it was in 2001. I look back on this thread and think about how, if it happened today, the division in this country might have prevented the bonds we all formed on that day. I'm not partaking in any of the...

Where have twenty years gone? As always, a big thank you to Steve for preserving this. For the first time in twenty years, I did not read through this thread. The local base was quiet today--they livestreamed their memorial ceremony this morning, and saw a few minutes of that. I saw a clip of...

How is it 15 years? I can still feel the terror in the pit of my stomach, hear the scramble of those jets overhead.

A bump and a reminder. Love to my Magic family today and always.
