We were stationed in Key West and I was getting ready for work and wondering what to do for hubbys birthday which was the next day. All of a sudden our world as we knew it was changing before our eyes. I was at work for only 15 minutes or so when I told the boss I HAD to go get my girls. We lived on a military base and I had to decide which child to get first. The one ON base or OFF. I went to the middle school in town and picked up my oldest child, then picked up her sister on base and within 15 minutes the entire base was on lock
down - no one in, no one out. Many of us didn't see our husbands for a week after that.
What were you doing that fateful day? I'd love to hear your stories and please.... Never forget. I will be forever grateful to all of those that lost their lives that day. Especially to our Police and Fire departments that ran in the towers when everyone was running out.
