New York Police and Fire Department

by Jarrell B. and Jasmine H. from cleveland


First we would like to thank the New York Firefighters for helping out on the date of September 11, 2001. The tragic incident had destroyed families' lives as America was under attack. We also would like to thank all the heroes that helped out on that day.

If it weren't for the people that saved our lives all the kids at Success Tech Academy would not be here. Or all the people in New York, but some survived just because of the heroes that helped. But instead 3,000 had to lose there lives. Just imagine how the families felt.

People must be very sad and horrified about how some kids might grow up without a mother or a father, and to me that is very sad and I would know a little about who they feel because I grew up with out a father and mother thats why I grew up with my grandmother. To me when I saw that the first thing I did was call my dad.

I wonder how little kids can go on by missing there family members. I know if I was little kid I don't know how I would take control of the actions that are going on around me.

Before the accident I thought that nothing would happen to our state because we are a standing nation. But I had another thought about it, but I didn't think some country would destroy something that was so precious to our nation, because we have freedom,and all of the people from other countries want to come to ours. Because we have a great nation.
