Press seeking 9/11 memories

The Crittenden Press is seeking your memories and thoughts on one of the most seminal events in American history, 9/11. We have even set up a special e-mail account specifically to receive your comments.

In the month long lead-up to the 10th anniversary of the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center—as well as the downing of United Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pa.—The Press is working on a series of stories related to how 9/11 changed the lives of Crittenden Countians.

However, we need your help. Simply gather your thoughts of the moment you first heard about the attacks, how you felt, where you were and what you were doing. If that memory is too vague, how about sharing how you feel the terrorist attacks changed your life and future, particularly from a military family's perspective.

Please e-mail your comments to 911@the-press.com, and please keep in mind that we may share your thoughts in our print edition or online site. Also, please include your name, city and state of residence as well as your connection to Crittenden County.
