I remember it was a Day, sitting in a Room at the State Board Testing Center. A giant screen in front of me, sitting 3rd row back to my left was north the screen to my east, in front of me was a burning building reports that it was on fire, some speculating as to the cause, as I watched in horror a plane flew into the building it was no longer speculation rather, disbelief we were being attacked, I knew in an instant, was a terror attack like so many other attempts, but this time instead of hijacking and flying them into the ground with passengers they have devised a method of a fully loaded fuel plane weight is without question add aluminum and other pieces to the plane is a bomb, explosive and devastating.
In an instant I also knew the weight including fuel, would cause the Towers to fall, that the structural integrity would be lost, and to my horror I was right, my assumptions were realized in front of me on a grand display, my heart went from those on the ground who I knew had no idea to run away and keep their distance, but rather to watch from below like so many fixed on the event not realizing they would be a part of the unfolding terror.
In memory of those who lost their lives I remember where I was. Put a pin drop on the map at that fateful moment.
Regrettably and with sadness,
kv
