Positively Good Productions

On September 11, 2001, militants associated with 

extremist groups boarded four passenger airplanes. Soon 

after take-off they disabled the crews and took control of 

the aircraft with full loads of fuel and carried out the 

deadliest systematized suicide attacks on American soil.

 Two of the planes were deliberately flown into the twin 

towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a

 third plane hit the Pentagon just outsideWashington, D.C.,

 and the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. 

Almost 3,000 people were killed during the 9/11 terrorist 

attacks. These attacks caused extensive death and 

destruction. More than 400 police and firefighters were 

killed after responding to the call, bravely rushing to the 

scene... and into the towers to save others that day.
