Default Where were you on 9/11

We were on our boat @ Ortega River Marina-Jacksonville, Fl--was walking to the heads/ showers & heard some reporting on the marina loudspeakers-once I figured out what was happening -went back to our boat--woke the Admiral & said "something big is happening" put all the TV's on

Next day went to NAS/JAX & said "take mew off the retired list' was told I was too old

Few weeks later went to the Navy ball @ NAS/JAX--most moving event of my
life--see the young officers male/female in dinner dress raising their glasses in a salute to the fallen.
