<p>My entire heart is given to the victims & families effected by 9/11 today.</p>
<p>Heartcross, great topic for this day. Last year USMMA held a service on the steps of Delano Hall. My son gave a speech he’d written about 9/11 last year and the bells were tolled. I’d posted it here last year but can’t find it in the old threads to post again today. I can only imagine what it must feel like to look across the Sound & see those lights at night from the towers. He said it was very moving. They will have the same ceremony this evening. Wish I could be there.</p>
<p>Yes indeed. My son is at his academy, not partly because of 9/11, but entirely because of it. He’s never waivered from his goal to become Coast Guard upon graduation in hopes of working with our port security. He feels that this is where his service & heart belong. I am so unbelievably proud of our servicemen & women & of our Academy kids, especially on this day.</p>
<p>May we never forget.</p>
