{we will remember}

On this anniversary, we will remember the sacrifice...

“Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children. “
~ President George W. Bush

"We ask a lot of those who wear our uniform. We ask them to leave their loved ones to travel great distances, to risk injury, even to be prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice of their lives. They are dedicated. They are honorable. They represent the best of our country, and we are grateful."
~ President George W. Bush - 02 OCT 01

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
~ George Orwell

...and through a veil of tears, we are eternally grateful.
