9/11 - Another Day That Lives In Infamy

Posted by OBPO Agent · September 09, 2021

This was by far an attack that shook America, however it also revealed our will as a nation to overcome such tragedies. Fast forward from 1941 to 2001 & America was once again struck by enemies of the State. As technology had progressed profoundly since WW2 we were able to hear, see, and almost feel the sheer terror & fear that gripped all those involved. Truly 9/11 is another day that lives in infamy.

Despite this we cannot let our guard down, we must continue to strive forward towards the “finish line” so that our normal Labor Day celebrations can return.
