September 11, 2001, 10:03 AM, United Airlines Flight 93: a Boeing 757 aircraft, crashes into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, as passengers attempted to subdue the hijackers

September 11, 2001, 10:03 AM, United Airlines Flight 93: a Boeing 757 aircraft, with a crew of seven and 33 passengers, not including four hijackers. As passengers attempted to subdue the hijackers, the aircraft crashed into a field in Stonycreek Township near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

Please take time out of your day to remember the terrorist attacks in New York City, and Washington, D.C., and the bravery of the passengers that went down with the plane in Shanksville, PA on September 11, 2001. Please honor the 2,507 civilians, 72 law enforcement officers, 343 firefighters, 10 emergency medical workers, and 55 military service personnel who lost their lives, or gave their lives saving others. Many first responders are still fighting for their lives, and others are losing their lives, because of their response to Ground Zero. Each year we lose a few more.

Take a few minutes and acknowledge the loss to the country and the victim’s families…mark the day, and remember…, so that WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
