hello all

Hi All, allow me to introduce myself.

I am an average American citizen. I work in the high tech industry, and thus have no military experience.

However, I have been a very frequent flier for the last decade, on United. The routes that the hijacked planes took on 9/11 were the routes I often took.

I was flying on 9/11 and was stranded away from home, and experienced that terrible day like many horrified Americans. Fortunately I did not have to fly coast-to-coast that day, and was thus a witness to one of the most terrible days in American history.

Ever since 2001, I have flown every 9/11 every year after, partially in memory of the lives lost, and partly because I refuse to bow down to terror. A lot of people I know don't fly as much anymore, but I still travel same as before.

I am also a Military Channel / History Channel junkie, and have watched nearly every show on our special forces. I really admire our brave men and women in uniform, and can't thank your contributions and sacrifices enough.

Anyway enough rambling from me. God Bless and give our enemies hell!!!
