9/11 none of us will ever forget I know I cannot, lets never.

On September 11, 2001, four U.S. planes hijacked by terrorists crashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people in a matter of hours. Behind the staggering number of deaths are the individuals, each of whom left behind family, friends and co-workers who feel the national tragedy on a personal level. CNN.com has established this site as an evolving record of those who died and a place for readers to build a living memorial for them.

We ask no member to mock or ridicule this thread in anyway please, this is not about war & politics its to remember all those precious lives (2,749) that were taken http://edition.cnn.c.../lists/by-name/ and the families that were left behind.

I was late for school that day, so I saw it on the news, at the time I didn't realize how bad it was. So at school, I told all my friends, and the teacher overheard me and I was nearly expelled, but then the kindergarten teacher turned on her TV to play a movie and it was on. It was a bad day indeed, I can't say it has affected me once. I mean as an American I feel some sorrow for those lost, but I didn't know anyone that died it in it personally, and I don't know anybody who died in it. But I've been there I saw them, it just seem so strange that they are gone.

I remember I was in the train back from school, and I overheard a few guys in the seats infront of me talking about something, and all I heard was "Yea, and into the pentagon aswell. that makes 3 planes in total" Of course at that point I didnt know what had happened, only when I came home did my mom tell me and I sat infront of the TV and watched CNN the rest of the day

I remember hearing about it when i got home from School. At first i laughed because i thought it was a joke but once i saw it on TV i felt guilty and my heart goes out to those victims.

I will never forgive myself for what happened. My sqaud was in the air when we found out about the plane. We had direct orders not to engage. We could have shot it down (guys you might not understand what I'm saying because it's a really long story). But those poor souls. They didnt hurt anyone.

man that site is creepy. i was looking for people with my last name and it comes up with 1 person and he is from brentwood NY and I am from brentwood TN...thats creepy.

I remember I was in sixth grade in english calss when it happened. the headmaster asked that all the teachers bring their students to the theater and he told us what happened. When we were dismissed a couple people set up a TV and were watching it. I caught a glimpse right when the tower collpased...that was scary.

R.I.P to all those lost on Sept. 11

I was in sixthgrade and every kid in my class started leaving until I was the last one left, then I heard that planes hit the pentagon (my mother and father take the train through the pentagon) and they weren't there to pick me up and I feared the worse. They were fine though thankfully. I hope nothing as terrable happens to anyone in the world.

Oh wow....

wow...that is totally out of your hands man, you cant take the blame for that kind of thing! I'm sure there's more to the story than just that but really, I'm sure there was nothing you could do.

I remember my entire school spent the rest of the day on the internet, watching footage and trying to make sense of the situation. While half of the kids worried about their parents who work in NYC, more than a few of whom worked in the WTC (I live about 40 mins outside NYC, so MANY people commute). It was a horrifying time. My heart goes out to all those affected by this incredible loss.
