We were working on the turnpike that morning. Most of us had flip phones only. Some of the crew said a jet fly over turned around and headed east again. Never forgot that sense of urgency and fear.
I figure if that’s what happened. Which is pretty likely. It was probably the correct call. Those people didn’t have a prayer any way you look at it.My buddy has a camp down by the Maryland border in Somerset County that we go trout fish at in April and October every year, we went the first weekend in October that year, he knew the backroads from the Turnpike interchange at Somerset up to Shanksville and we all followed each other up and drove within a football field of the crash site and walked up and looked around...it was eerie as hell at sunset..
We go to a bar in Fairhope called the Hillbilly Haven and those guys told us some things about that incident you won't see on TV..some of them saw it happen, 2 of those dudes were at their farm fishing on a pond and saw it ALL happen..

There’s a lot to ponder on that whole thing. The entire thing. How many bad guys with knives Not a whole lot of it makes much sense to me.
