Almost all of our parents can remember exactly where they were when they were told that JFK had been assassinated. A similar moment for our generation is September 11th, 2001.
On base in Iraq, we took a few hours to remember the physical struggles of people on 9/11, especially the people who were killed that day and those who worked to save others, and the continued struggles of our country.
We marched in battle gear for 10 kilometers in the middle of the day and ended with words from our commander about the continued efforts to promote freedom.
It was a very tiring, but very moving day.
