On September 11, 2001 a terrible tragedy occurred in America.
Thousands died when several US commercial planes were hijacked and crashed into large
buildings full of people who worked there.
In New York the twin towers of the World Trade Center,
just as people had arrived for the work day, were destroyed along with two planes
which had been hijacked after take off for their California destinations.
In addition to those killed on the planes and in the buildings, hundreds of rescue personnel were lost
including fire fighters and police.
There were two more
targets which were not hit, however one of those last two of the four planes hijacked, crashed
into one of the buildings at the pentagon in Washington, D.C.
The fourth plane crashed into a field in PA after allegedly the American male passengers
had voted to try to overtake the hijackers. |
