[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was walking into my office building 2 blocks from the White House and saw the news of the tower having been hit on the first floor cafe TV. We watched in horror as the second tower was hit, as the pentagon was hit, and as multiple reports of possible other attacks in DC came over the air. Then people started coming in from off the street with stories of other sites in DC being attacked. People were soon hitting the streets, leaving their offices to find a way home. Our office decided to close and I walked more than 3 miles home because that felt safer than the metro (which I’m sure was crowded). [b]The next day, downtown streets were closed and there were national guard troops in tanks on every street corner. It definitely felt like the world had changed[/b].[/quote] That is the first thing I think about when I think about 9/11. I also worked right by the White House and watched the staffers evacuate with their hands on their heads from my office window. It was surreal. But that still didn't impact me in the same way that the National Guard did. [/quote]
