: This is a message that a received from a good friend of mine attending college in D.C.

: Today is truly a day that will live in infamy. I, myself, am ok, just a
: little shocked and distraught. Washington DC is a mad house. Let me give you
: a little perspective into what i witnessed to day.

: I arrived for my 930 class about 10 minutes early and my prof. told us what
: had happened in NYC and said class was cancelled. SO i proceeded to my dorm
: to catch CNN to see the news in NYC. As i was walking, i saw a plane taking
: the normal approach route into Reagan NAtional Airport and thought nothing of
: it until about 15 seconds later wheni heard an explosion. I jumped on the
: ground, made sure everything was safe, and ran to my dorm. I then saw reports
: that the Pentagon had been hit. About 20 minutes later I received a call from
: my ROTC commander telling me that i was now on temporary active duty and told
: me to meet at the ROTC unit. We were going to assist with evacuations and
: security. DC was crazy. People were rushing to get home, emergency crews
: were rushing to the Pentagon, streets were blocked, and people were in
: hysterics. I got to the unit thinking that i was going to be right in the
: middle of it all. We did not mobilize but went to the Pentagon to lend
: assistance. It was horrific, the scene that i saw. Total devestation and
: chaos.

: Just pray for all the victims and stay strong as we overcome this test of our
: strength. Take Care and God Bless.
