A friend of the family had dreamed of seeing Ireland for years. On the last day of her vacation, September 11th, her jet was turned around and sent back there.

She got an extra day or two in Ireland, but I know she wasn't happy about it.

Folks, Wooden Porch came by my blog and posted a comment, and says "though the names have been changed, it's 100% true." So, though this still isn't solid confirmation, keep in mind that if one of you decides to go confirm it you won't be able to match Wayne's name to any Navy guys who got medals for action at the Pentagon.

I believe it's true, or I wouldn't have posted it, but you know how the blogosphere can be.

Probably a link to that comment would be good...http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=30027682&postID=115794989826359972

Note she also says she had to make some minor changes to the story...use the source link to get to her blog.

Thanks for the ping on this SB. Being always the optimist I like to tell people that more than being attacked by evil men on 9/11, evil was defeated by courage and selflessness. The exact opposite of what those bastards wanted to happen actually came to be.
