Strangely i remember sleeping in, and when i got up, and turned on the tv all i saw was smoke all over the new york sky line (after the 2nd colapse). And the news casters were in shell shock and not repeating anything at that moment. I went to work, and like everyone else, just sat in dismay and shock as the news reports came in.

i was aboard the uss John f. Kennedy. i was sitting at my work bench when couple guys came grabbed me, told me to turn the tv on... we had just pulled out (couple hrs) for a training exercise. instead of heading for st.thomas, we headed for new york. it was craziness, we were all ready to go party in a few days, then the shit hit the fan, it was all business after that. some of our planes were the ones flyin the area afterwards securing everything. we stayed out in the atlantic for round a month... came back got our shit in order and we headed out for 7mths... Arabic sea sux!

I was walking into my Communication tech class sophmore year when my teach turned on the TV and we saw the second plane hit. We watched the news the rest of the day. There was some dumbass brazilian kid running around the halls laughing and saying he was glad it had happened to the US. I'm surprised he didn't get beat to death that day.

i was in the marine corps, stationed in jacksonville nc but on an exercise out at 29 palms california. we were supossed to be leaving the next day but ended up not leaving for a few more days after it happened. i was at the px getting something to eat when all the marines got quite and we all started watching the tv. the next day i had a bunch of friends in afghanistan and about year later i was in iraq. don't know why the hell we waited so long but hey it's a bush in office! i wouldn't at all put it past the government of the united states to do it but i don't know for sure who did so i will not speculate. horrible day for everyone involved. and if you have never been to ground zero, i can post some pics if you would like.

I was at home, no class that day for some reason. I was watching CNN already. In fact I was in SSM chat and I was the person that told everyone in there to go turn on CNN. I watched the 2nd plane hit live. I remember thats when it hit me it was a big deal. I went and got Shelly from School and filled up our vehicles with gas, the gas stations were swamped and it was almost riot like.
