Definately somthing that is burned in my mind. I wish the country always could be like the days following though. Everyone seemed so close and working together. For the fist time since I could remeber it was like all Americans were on the same side. Even among all of the tragedy I could feel the sense of pride everyone had because they are Americans.

At that time I had a neighbor who was born and raised in Germany. He was an older gentleman and had worked his whole life as a landscaper/groundskeeper at different national memorials. It was this German born man who went out and bought American flags and put them up for everyone on our block by our mailboxes. He was proud to be an American although he was not born one.
