福克斯新闻 9-11:我们一起铭记

Americans are a resilient people, and that resilience was on display at the ceremony in lower Manhattan that marked the 9/11 attacks 13 years ago.

Names were read at the plaza¹, almost 3,000 of them, and while the tone was somber², some family members also took that time to look forward…

(Family Member) "Even though I really didn't know you, you will always be family in my heart and I will always love you. And in your honor, I have decided³ to serve our country with the United States Marine⁴ Corps⁵."

People of all ages gathered to pay tribute to those who died, at times, taking on the feel of a reunion. A plaza of people who will forever share the bond of losing a loved on 9/11.
