The actions of the passengers on Flight 93 embody all that is American. Americans always seem to rise to the occasion. As I watched the show I wondered if these events had taken place over Paris, or Berlin if the passengers would have done the same. I'm so proud of those guys. As it was already mentioned, they scored the first victory in the War on Terror. May they all rest in peace.

The show was awesome.

The way Keiffer Sutherland did the voice over and how the film used the "24" camera shot style was very dramatic.

So many comments...

Pride, anger, vengence, honor...all these feelings came to the surface while watching it.

Umm, what I'm going to ask is alittle on the shady side but would one of you that taped this program be willing to make a copy and mail it to me? Freepmail me if you're willing.

This was so hard to watch. It sure did bring back memories and feelings that I had put behind me during the long months of having sons deployed.

Our Marine was a Quantico that day.It brought back the feelings that I had during the attacks when we really didn't know how many planes were up there and what we be the final number of targets.

God Bless America!!!

I just finished watching the film here in CA and have been fighting back the tears for the last 90 minutes. It makes me so proud to be an American...and to expand...an AVERAGE American. These heroes were just like you and i. They were put in an extraordinary situation and chose to act.

It may have been mentioned in previous comments, however we must also remember the people that fought and detained the "Shoe Bomber". Were it not for these heroes we would have endured another plane attack just a few months after 9-11.

I just finished watching it.

Impressive.

Although I really don't want to see or hear Tom Brokejaw during the post show presentation.

I saw the show, and thought it was very well done. It was very poignant how the different families believed that each of their loved ones must have had an active role in the attacks on the terroists.

Many mentioned that this was the first battle in the War on Terror, and they are exactly right! The folks on that flight made a conscious decision to stop the terrorists plans to kill even more of their fellow citizens. My sister will be eternally grateful to those brave folks because her son was working for the Secretary of the Senate at the Capitol Building that morning, and she knew that the Capitol would likely have been the terrorists' target.

I saw it last night. To go from total terror to plan of attack takes real courage. They took their shot and saved lives and they went down fighting. Great examples of what we strive to be as Americans.
