I remember that sad day[:(] <br />I was a freshman in high school and i first heard about what happened from the bus driver, but but i only heard that the airport was shut down. And then our teacher told. We watched CNN covrage all day in school. Even though it was happening thousand of miles away I was very scared. And then someone spread the news that another hijacked 747 Korean jet was headed for Anchorage. The downtown was completely evacuated, lines on the highway from suburbs were tens of miles long. We also have two military bases here so we had F-15s flying over the city. Turned out that the pilot of the 747 did not mean that the plane was hijacked, it was a question to confirm four hijackings on the East Coast. <br /> Last year we had a citywide minute of silence, buses and cars pulled over at the time the first plane hit the tower. <br /> God Bless all the victims.
