September 11, 2010, 9 years after the terrorist attacks on the United States. The Pentagon was one of the places hit. I visited during the day and at night to see the memorial and to remember all those we lost on that fateful day. This is one of the pictures I took, it was so moving and so powerful to experience this day where it actually happened. The part of the Pentagon has been rebuilt where the plane hit, but it’s apparent that the impact is still there. The memorial is beautiful, with one of these for each life lost. President Obama spoke here earlier in the day to honor all the lives lost on that tragic day. May we never forget the sacrifices that have been given to keep our country free.

More pictures of the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial, taken on the night of September 11, 2010. Nine years later yet it seems like it was just yesterday. It was so hard seeing people there that knew people who died in the crash. You could easily tell how much it changed their lives based on the tears falling from their faces. We will never forget what happened on September 11th, and those lives lost still mean more than words can describe to this country. We will never forget
