theCHIVE visits the 9/11 Memorial (30 HQ photos)

Great job,Chive.It's a beautiful memorial.

As a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan… this Chiver says Hooah!

I was working at One Liberty Plaza at the time. Things still have a surreal feel every time I go back downtown.

Well done, fellas.

I'm thousands of miles from NY and not American but I "felt it", I got my kids up to witness it.
I had gotten up for work and we're three hrs behind NY so when I turned on the TV the first plane had already hit one of the towers and it was surreal watching the 2nd jet.

An extremly sad day for the USA but Canada and the rest of the world felt it too.

Bless 'em all!

I'm an Aussie and I still think it was wonderful you paid respect to this on here. Good job!

#8 Why would you smile? If I ever go there, I'm not going to smile like a jackass. I'd take pictures of the place and pay my respects.

Chivers,
I also was able to visit the 9/11 Memorial about a month ago. There are no words to describe the feelings that I felt while standing on that hallow ground. I did not know anyone who directly lost their life that day but having served 19 years and counting in the Air Force I have lost bothers and sisters in arms due to the gutless act that day. Luckily no one I personnaly knew but I still feel the pain when reports come in of another service member lost. Please never forget that day and keep those in uniform in your prayers.

That’s gotta be such a sad place

thank you for the pictures. its hard looking at them. but its great what they've done. thank you. god bless.

Ladies keep calm.. Just keep Chivin on. Wanna pay ur respects? Don’t argue pointlessly.
