Amazing how that event touched everyone.....this is a Scouter who was on one of the planes that hit the world trade center. The boathouse they built in his honor up at the camp has pieces of steel from the World Trade centers in its foundation.

This is a guy that gave to scouting for decades as a scout and as a leader.

Our troop goes to this camp 3-4 times a year to camp and My son has worked here the past three summers on staff.

Just thought I'd throw this story up for some to read.....one of the names of the many.

I took my son to a memorial yesterday and we saw a piece of a girder from one of the towers. He's only 6 1/2 and didn't know anything about 9/11 so I explained it to him. He was really interested and had a lot of questions about the "good guys" and "bad guys" and why anyone would do something like that. I hadn't really thought about the fact that he's growing up in such a different world than his parents did. When we were kids, you never heard much about terrorism. When you did hear about a terrorist act, it was always in a foreign country.

I have trouble wrapping my head around this still. I don't think we have mitigated this nearly enough dead enemy-wise to help alleviate the pain to where it is at a point of putting it behind me, but still not forgetting. I like the stealth involved with the drones. When it happens, when they meet thier maker, they must show up with a surprised look on thier faces.
