That's so strange because I was 2 at the time too and I don't remember a thing, but my mom always tells me that my brother kept telling her that they played the same movie all day. It's probably better that I was too young to think about it because my mom works at a nuclear power plant and I would've been worried sick. Another story she's told me is that she was talking to a guy at her work once and he said that he was on a base at the time and that you don't break the sound barrier unless something super serious was going on and they broke the sound barrier. I get serious chills every time I hear either of those storiesI was only 2 years old at the time. My family was living in Italy at the time because my dad was in the Navy. I don't remember a thing about the day but my mom told me my older sister (5 years old) kept asking "why do they keep flying into the tower" (because they kept replaying it) We only had 3-5 channels, and that's all that was on so me and my sister weren't allowed to turn on the TV. We lived on a Navy base, and my dad was off base that day. That base had SO much security measures that day. My dad typically took a bus from the work to the base entry, then the bus drove him to the apartment areas. They wouldn't let the buses onto the base... So my dad had to walk like a long way to get to the apartments and got home super late. I think we were on lockdown for a few days. It's weird for me to think I wasn't even in the US at the time...
