Hundreds gathered in Manhattan Sunday morning to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, and to honor the thousands of people who lost their lives.
Sunday’s Sept. 11 ceremony includes six moments of silence, each
timed for events during the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. At 8:46 a.m., a
police officer rang a bell to mark the first moment of silence, for when
the first plane struck the North Tower. At 9:03 a.m., a moment of
silence observed the time the second plane struck the South Tower.
A
third moment of silence commemorated when Flight 77 struck the
Pentagon, and a fourth when the South Tower fell. The fifth marked when
Flight 93 crashed near Shanksville, Pa. At 10:28 a.m., a final moment of
silence was observed for the fall of the North Tower.
