I wished they would have shown Queen Elizabeth's reaction to 9/11. Little people know about the fact that she had The Star Spangled Banner played during the changing of the guard on 9/14. An event we replayed with our US army band playing God Save The Queen, outside the Uk Embassy in DC after the 2005 London bombings.

Queen Elizabeth II lost her Dad and Grandma a year apart. Windsor Castle caught fire in 1992 and burned for hours. Princess Dianas death in 1997, then she lost her best friend Porchey in 2001 the same day the World Trade Center was attacked. Princess Margaret passed away Feb. 2002 and not even 6 weeks later she lost her mother Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mother. Then she had to watch her husband of 73 years pass away before her. She was a strong person. Rest easy ma’am.❤️

My grandpa, who served in WII, told me that night when we rewatched the news coverage since I watched almost "live" in my middle school classroom in Iowa. He told me to "burn these images in your memory kid. One day history will be written by people who think they know it. Just like me who served, you know served for the next generations to remember history correctly." It was the first time I saw the solder, not my grandpa. I just hugged him, and he never let go until I told him I had to move, and we kinda laugh at each other.

I was 7 years old and getting ready for school when we got the news. Since I live in California and it happened in New York, it was on tv when my brother and I woke up. We were living with my grandparents because dad was building our house. I remember seeing my parents' and grandparents' faces gray with shock. Mom and grandma were crying. My brother and I didn't go to school that day because mom wanted to hold onto us. I remember sitting on my grandparents' bed and watching the burning towers go down. It happened so fast yet it was playing in slow motion in my head. The day after, on the 12th, my brother and I went to school and chatted with our classmates about it. Later, we had an assembly and the school faculty was trying to tell us all what happened. Then, we all sang "God Bless the USA". My nano's birthday is on September 12, but there wasn't much celebrating that year. We spent his birthday party being glued to the screen and praying that survivors would walk from the rubble. My little town was affected. One of my brother's classmates knew a girl who was on one of the doomed flights. The father of a boy in my class packed up and went to NYC with the family dog. Both were trained in search and rescue and the boy's father is a firefighter. Near the high school, we had this large boulder that people could paint on. Someone painted a picture in remembrance. No one had the heart to paint over it, so another boulder was added. Every 9/11 anniversary, people will paint pictures on those rocks commemorating those who died. No matter how old I get, I don't think I'Il ever forget seeing the towers go down. It's burned in my memory. Every anniversary, I say a prayer for the ones who died and their loved ones. Never forget that day. Never.

I too was 7 years old on 9/11 and just waking up on Saturday morning here in Sydney Australia. I remember My parents were watching the tv in horror at the images of the Towers collapsing. the Headmaster of my school Mr Hindmarsh called an assembly on Monday morning and spoke about the importance of Australia's alliance with the US we had a minute silence for the lost. I didn't quite understand the gravity of the situation maybe because it was so far away from us here in Aus but everyone (the adults) at the time were so afraid that if it could happen to America the most Powerful nation on the planet it could happen here too.

I was 9 and living in Brooklyn at the time. My school, PS45, was one of those that had a near perfect view of the towers on any clear day, from the open walkways connecting the two sides of the school. After the first tower was hit, a teacher ran into my class to tell my teacher. They spoke for some time by the door. If I remember correctly, they were both crying, but my teacher was trying to console the other woman. I guess thinking that that was the end of the terrible situation, she took the class to the walkway to see what was happening. We saw the thick plumes of smoke. Minutes later we saw what I am sure I will never forget, as a second explosion occurred and we learned shortly after that we had just seen the second tower hit.

About the same age as me. I live, and still do, in Wisconsin. It was just a regular school day, but I and the majority of my classmates noticed the teachers were worried about something. I only found out about the attack when they took us all into the auditorium and turned on the Television to show us the news. Because the school was close to an airport, we were essentially evacuating because there were worries that terrorists were near, and schools would be a target. I was one of those who could get home under my own power, so I left as soon as we were allowed to leave. The school called my parents to let them know I was "walking" home, so my mother, who was also a schoolteacher, only had to call my brother to pick up our other brother. When Dad came home, he informed us that Grandpa, who worked as a volunteer fire fighter, was organizing some fire trucks and volunteers to head to New York. It's strange to me that I remember all those details

I was barely starting 2nd grade that day. My mom told me what had happened when she picked me up from school. My family didn't believe in watching TV, but my mom plugged in a cable set/antenna when we got home and she and I watched replays of the attack and live recordings of the aftermath. She held herself, crying and praying. I just sat there, mind blown that something like this happened in real life and not just in a story. My friend, who was 13 and living in Europe then, said that every TV channel was only airing news about the attacks for a good chunk of the day.

A friend had called me about the news -- I turned on the TV in time to see the first tower collapse. I went upstairs to find my landlady, and found her kindergarten-aged daughter sitting in front of their TV looking at the images. She wasn't at school because her dad had left early for work, and my landlady had woken up really sick with the flu. I remember turning off the TV and then going into the kitchen with her, to find oatmeal to make breakfast for her. Maybe it was just as well that I was so distracted, worrying about the little girl and also checking on her mom, that it took my mind off what was happening. (I don't know how much my landlady's daughter remembers about that day ... weird to think that she's almost 30 now.) I found out later that the husband of one of my childhood friends had been on the crew of Flight 93.

As another kid during the events remember that day vividly, it truly was a defining moment in the course of the world’s future. I was 9 so I had a good memory that life during the 90’s was truly a blessing, my younger brother barely remembers the 90’s but I remember it clearly. I blame that day for a lot of the hardships and building resentment and distrust amongst each other. I know that time right after people recalled how extra considerate we were to each other, very patriotic for a while, as we were going through the grief of what we lost that day, yet along the way we lost sight of that unity.

I was in high school. I was out in the quad with my environmental science class when a lady from the office came out and talked to our teacher for a few seconds. Our teacher then told us all to stop what we were doing and follow her back to the classroom. It wasn't our first time outside for that class, and being called in early like that had us all abuzz. When we took our seats, our teacher stood in front of us and said that there had been a terrorist attack in the World Trade Center in New York City, and that we would all be going home early. I took the bus home and my mom was watching the news. I can still see the towers burning.

Beyond his close friendships with the royal family, mentioning Porchie's title is ALSO a subtle reference to "Downton Abbey". Not to the show, itself, though. Nearly every episode, as well as the first movie, was shot at Highclere Castle, which is the Carnarvon family home. (1/20/2024)

Its because there is more of a shock factor. See the West (America and Western Europe etc) is a more stable region which since WW2 haven't had any real wars or Conflicts and its probably the most peaceful part of the world. So when people die there because of a terror attack or bombing its more shocking. Regions like Africa and the Middle East are (sadly) known for their conflicts and wars so much so that people hear of death and loss so much they become desensitized to it because their piece world remains the same whether its 10 people dying in a conflict in the middle east or 1 million. Also this isn't a movie its a television series.
