In this episode, Remembering September 11, 2001 9/11 events http://timeline.911memorial.org/#Timeline/2  Personal stories, and some recorded stories. The goal of this episode is not to glorify the day or our stories but just to put them out there.  We as a country pledged that “we will never forget” and there are college students now that don’t remember the day and a whole new generation, like my kids, who need to learn what happened.  Just a warning, this episode will have some emotional times so if you cry easily or frequently I suggest not listening to it while driving. Dispatcher Mike's Story Dr. Steph's Story Greg’s story Jeff’s story Photos from the 9/11 Museum can be found at: http://flyingandlife.com/2017/27/
