On Tuesday morning, September 11, 2001, the U.S. came under attack when four commercial airliners were hijacked and used to strike targets on the ground. Nearly 3,000 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 U.S. Capitol was thwarted.
The public is invited to join the National Park Service to honor and remember the 40 heroes of Flight 93 on the 25th observance of September 11, 2001. A full day of programs, including a morning observance and an afternoon ceremony, will be held at the Memorial Plaza near the Wall of Names.
The National Park Service (NPS) invites you to attend a public meeting to learn more about the release of the White-Tailed Deer Management Plan and Environmental Assessment for Flight 93 National Memorial, Fort Necessity National Battlefield and Friendship Hill National Historic Site.
