Also remember victims at The Pentagon in Washington, DC and Stonycreek Township in Somerset County, Pennsylvania.

An hour and 42 minutes from first impact to final collapse.

Remembered like it was yesterday.

Another date which will live in infamy.

Surreal.

Their faces say a lot.

It was around this time that the mission changed from rescue to evacuation.

Then the unthinkable happened.

Never seen anything like it.

The aftermath was just as surreal.

Nearly 5,000 additional deaths have been attributed to 9/11-related illnesses, which includes responders involved in the cleanup effort and survivors exposed in the surrounding area.

Iconic.

The Ground Zero Cross is on display at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York City, where it was permanently installed in 2011.

One could say that details of the original narrative have changed, depending on who you ask.

But the victims will never be forgotten.

A fitting memorial.

A worthy rebirth.

A skyline unlike any other.

Amen.
