LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Don’t forget about “Our 33” on 9/11

Editor, “Our 33.” As the Nation begins to prepare for 9/11, a horrendous date in history, may we remember 33 murdered comrades who exhibited incredible courage and bravery and yet never seem to be mentioned and honored. Our 33 were described as “plus crew” in most of the stories written that day.

Editor,

“Our 33.” As the Nation begins to prepare for 9/11, a horrendous date in history, may we remember 33 murdered comrades who exhibited incredible courage and bravery and yet never seem to be mentioned and honored. Our 33 were described as “plus crew” in most of the stories written that day.

Our 33 went to work on an early Tuesday morning thinking that our nation was protecting their workplace. Our 33 were eight pilots and 25 flight attendants. Our 33 should know that we will speak their names; we know they were there and what they did, and we think of them often.
