911 the most chilling no doubt. A few 20ish year olds ran into my office and we put on msnbc. They asked what this meant, I immediately stated this is an act of war and we are under attack. A lot of Americans knew someone somehow connected. My wife works with a mother of a stock broker lost that day. She is a school teacher. A tree and plaque have been erected in his name. Sad day for sure.
JFK is probably the most shocking. I was in first grade, we were let out early and was not told why. I remember seeing the flag at half mast as I waled home and wondered what it meant.
I'll have to say the killing a John Lennon hit me pretty hard. I still struggle to understand the killing of a musician to impress an actress! Strange indeed.
