September 11, 2001 is the date when multiple Al-Queda terrorists hijacked 4 different planes. Two of the planes crashed into the Twin Towers destroying them both within two hours of impact, another plane crashed into thePentagon in Arlington, Virginia, The fourth plane wrecked by Shanksville, Pennslvania. Passengers of this plane attempted to retake control of this plane. Nearly 3000 people died in the 9/11 attacks and over 6000 were injured. Many memorials were contructed in memory of the attacks, the Tribute of Light is a group of search lights that create to columns of light, the Pentagon memorial was built next to the Pentagon, these are just a couple of memorials that were built in honor of the victims of 9/11. Although I cant remember the day this I still think this event was and is a very sad and tragic event.
