gr82be 14,575 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Prayers for safety throughout our country and the world. Most specifically in those places where large crowds will be gathering. Lord keep us safe and may we always remember those who lost their lives so innocently on 9-11. In tragic and perilous times it seems that is when America is at its strongest. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEVER. This was my generation’s Pearl Harbor and so many men and women served so bravely at our Nation’s call. So many NYPD and FDNY ran into the buildings knowing they’d probably never come back out…🥺😢 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehighfan 1,240 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 One thing I still think about to this day is the people trapped stop the twin towers. They have 2 options and neither of them are good I also think about the people who got up, went to work, thinking it was another day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubiefifty 17,488 Posted September 12, 2021 Author Share Posted September 12, 2021 on 9 / 11 the responders had built in timers in their suits. if there is no movement for ten minutes it goes off in case the person was overcome by smoke or something and it helped to locate that person. after nine eleven hundreds were going off buried in the rubble and the alert beeps kept going off for days until the batteries ran down. if that does not get to you you have no pulse.
