it was on this day in 2001 in my 8th grade English class, that i knew i was going to join the Military, and protect the freedoms that i love to enjoy on a daily basis..

Well here it is 2008 and i sit today in Iraq serving in the USAF! 

[BLACKDOG]

I hear people sayin'. We Don't need this war.
I say there's some things worth fightin' for.
What about our freedom, and this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em by backin' down.
They say we don't realize the mess we're gettin' in
Before you start preachin' let me ask you this my friend.

Chorus
Have you forgotten, how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten, when those towers fell
We had neighbors still inside goin through a livin hell
And you say we shouldn't worry bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

You took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbin for you and me
It'll just breed anger is what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it everyday
Some say this country just out lookin' for a fight
Well after 9/11 man I'd have to say right.

Chorus
Have you forgotten, how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten when those towers fell
We had neighbors still inside goin' through a livin' hell
And we vow to get the ones behind Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
you can bet they remember just what they're fightin' for

Have you forgotten
All the people killed
Yes some went down like heroes
In that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten
About our Pentagon
All the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on
Don't you tell me not to worry 'bout Bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?!

never forget

[Rocksurfer]

We should never forget this and the changes that it made in our lives. It's sad that some people have already forgotten why we are fighting in foreign countries. If we don't bring it to them they will bring here and do more of this. We still are the sleeping giant, we've been stirred but have yet to wake. Keep us that way or you will realize what hell you put a few of us through will be nothing compared to the hell that will descend on you.

American girls and american guys
Well always stand up and salute
Well always recognize
When we see old glory flying
Theres a lot of men dead
So we can sleep in peace at night
When we lay down our head

My daddy served in the army
Where he lost his right eye
But he flew a flag out in our yard
Until the day that he died
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy
In the land of the free.

Now this nation that I love
Has fallen under attack
A mighty sucker punch came flyin in
From somewhere in the back
Soon as we could see clearly
Through our big black eye
Man, we lit up your world
Like the 4th of july

Hey uncle sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the statue of liberty
Started shakin her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, its gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom
Start ringin her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue

Justice will be served
And the battle will rage
This big dog will fight
When you rattle his cage
And youll be sorry that you messed with
The u.s. of a.
cause well put a boot in your ass
Its the american way

Hey uncle sam
Put your name at the top of his list
And the statue of liberty
Started shakin her fist
And the eagle will fly
Man, its gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom
Start ringin her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue

It is sad, how people have already forgotten why we are still fighting this war.  Some may not think this video is relevant, but I sure do and I'm not afraid to say it:

(Can't seem to get it to work on here, but just in case I'll leave the link up, and here's the link for the video)

I remember that day, the news on TV in the hangar...the citizens of this nation must strive to keep the story from being watered down or "lefty-fied". We must also be vigilant that the tenuous hold on our precious freedoms not be thrown by the wayside in the effort to maintain security. Legislation like the Patriot Act can, all too easily, be turned inward against law abiding citizens...in the blink of an eye...or oozing like molasses in January.

I was listening to the radio this morning, and one guy was saying that he'll never forget exactly what he was doing and where he was the moment he heard about the first tower, then the second.

I remember so clearly.  When I first heard about the first tower, I had just gotten out of the shower and turned on my radio.  I was unwrapping my hair to brush it.  When I got to the cafeteria for breakfast I remember hearing about the second tower.  I am pretty sure I will never forget those moments.  Thinking "Well, this doesn't really concern us, it's in New York for cryin out loud".  (I didn't know what the twin towers were).  So my first class was History of all classes, and my teacher is a politics guru.  We watched the breaking news the entire class period and throughout the entire day.  Some of my classmates had family in NY at the time.  It was quite a day - almost like sludging through 4 foot of snow... the entire week went forever

Isn't it funny that we remember exactly where we were and what we were doing at the moment the news on what was happening? I was sitting in my Nissan Sentra on my way to work, on the I-105 at the I-710 interchange in the #4 lane merging into the #3 lane since the #4 lane was ending going about 2 mph in traffic. I looked across the I-710 to the north and said "Wow it's on now."

[Richmondo]

I was sitting in my geometry class when another teacher ran into the room and turned the TV on, and set it to the news. At the time I didn't realize the significance of what had happened, being 15, but I sure as hell do now...
