On our way to Gettysburg for a weeks vacation and wanted to visit the Flight 93 Memorial for the 40 victims of the 911 attack. This is the flight that was most likely headed for the White House and the passengers and crew overpowered the hijackers. Quite a sad but honoring display for real American hero's, these people gave their lives to save many others. This is a must see for all Americans.
The marble wall is inscribed with the name of each hero on he plane, the angle at which the marble wall is layed out is the direction of the aircrafts flight path to impact. The coroner ordered the impact site filled in as it is the burial grounds for the passengers and crew. Only family members are permitted to visit the impact site. A large bolder marks the point of impact. The plane was inverted and hit the ground traveling 563 miles per hour. Fortunately there would have been no suffering.
Some items left in memorium of the hero's
May they all rest in peace and free of all the torment of this crazy world.
