Our location - New Stanton, PAFlight 93 Memorial, Shanksville, PA |
|
We went to the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville, PA that honors those who faced with dire consequences, took charge of their lives and terminated the flight of the hijacked United Airlines Flight 93 by crashing it into the Pennsylvania countryside. Their actions saved the probable target of the United States Capital Building in Washington, DC. |

Once all the investigation at the crash site was completed, the hole was filled in. The Debris field is not just a field holding the remains of heroic people. | ||
