On Tuesday morning, September 11, 2001, the United States came under attack when four commercial airliners were hijacked and used to strike targets on the ground. 2,973 people tragically lost their lives. Because of the actions of the 40 passengers and crew aboard one of the planes, Flight 93, the attack on the nation's capital was thwarted. |

The crash site is far out in the field across the temporary memorial. Look closely for the flag in the middle of the photo above. It's the little "white" dot in the center of the field on the horizon near on the far edge of the field near the trees. Below is a "zoomed-in" photo of the crash site. |
