I'll never forgot where I was when this happen. I was in Alaska, at my 1st base, getting ready for work. My supervisor called me and told me to get in now. I got to work and saw what was going on in the news and we saw the 2nd plane hit the building. We had our jets on alert. We had people deploy with our A-10's to A-stan and I deployed a year later with our F-16's on alert, we practice scrambles twice a day.....I and everyone else hoped it didn't come to that.
