Reagan did not announce it if memory serves me correct, but it is my understanding that either there was a statement within the proceedings that this was to occur, and for sure, I had heard on the radio at about 12:03 or so that they were clearing Iranian airspace.

I think maybe it was announced in the proceedings. My guess is that since a lot of people had radios with them, they talked about what they heard--about clearing Iranian airspace. That's probably the reason a lot of people were talking about it and I overheard it. I just remember a sense of electricity running through the crowd.
