Good to see you, dear Knight, on this sad day of remembrance!
All my coverage is on VCR tape....might be a good idea to get some of them on DVDs.
Most of mine is too. I took it from the TV at the time of broadcast. Some can’t be replaced...some can.
Thanks Kathy!

STATEMENT BY THE PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA
Prime Minister Stephen Harper, after participating in a special ceremony at Beechwood National Cemetery today, issued the following statement commemorating the victims of 9/11:
Eight years on, the memory of that awful morning in New York and Washington continues to evoke horror and sorrow. Today we remember the lives that were shattered through those atrocities. We still grieve for the innocent men, women and children aboard the doomed airplanes and we still mourn the thousands who perished in the collapse of the Twin Towers and in the fires at the Pentagon.
We honour not only those who perished on that day, but also the great sacrifices made by those determined to prevent such a dark day from ever recurring.
The attacks in New York and Washington revealed a truth we had all sensed, but were loath to admit: that terrorism is not something that happens somewhere else, to someone else. The 24 Canadians killed on 9/11 are a reminder that it can happen to us.
9/11 was a day of hate. Today we weep, we mourn and we reflect.
Well said, Mr. Prime Minister. We all mourn those of all nations who suffered at the hands of terrorists.
We also mourn the loss of brave Canadians fighting even today in Afghanistan; they have a place of hnor in our hearts.
honor - hard to type well with a blurry screen...

NEVER FORGET

I love the picture with the Chambers Brothers...in honor of the fallen.
Members of the Flag Fold Detail of the 3rd United States Infantry "The Old Guard" render honors to the Pentagon garrison flag during a "Retreat Ceremony" hosted by the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, Thurs., Sept. 7, 2006, at the museum in Washington, D.C. The flag, which was first unfurled from the roof of the Pentagon the day after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, has been on view in the museum since September 2002. Photo Credit: Richard Strauss
I agree, my, with your analysis....Ft Richardson has lost 5 soldiers in the last week in Afghanistan....the ROE are making things so much worse.
