Blog5: 9/11 Remembering




 I dont remember anything from that day. All  I know is from what my teachers and family has told me. I know that United Airlines Flight 175 had 5 al-Qaeda hijackers. The team of hijackers was led by Marwan al-Shehhi. Marwan crashed into the south tower in flight 175. American airlines flight 11 crashed into the south tower. Mohamed Atta was the hijack that crashed into the north tower.
