9/11 - America is a Target
Ten Years have pasted since the tragic day of Sept.
11, 2001, but the images will be
engraved in our minds forever.
The majority of current students at Auburn University
were in middle or elementary school when al-Qaueda terrorist attacked New York City
and Washington DC.
Kendall Bliss, a senior in accounting, grew up in the suburbs of Washington DC in
Oakton, Va.
She can vividly recall the intensity of 9/11 as a sixth grade student in Ms.
Smith’s classroom.
Having no idea of the circumstances the US was in; Bliss and the rest of her classmates
watched their television as footage of the attacks replay on the news.
Hearing on the
loudspeaker in her classroom, “Planes have been used as bombs,” Bliss did not realize
people were in such danger.
“I did not understand the significance of everything,” said Bliss.
“I was too young to
comprehend the tragedy of it all.
”
As her classmates were being taken out of school in fear of being attacked again.
