"Nineteen" ~~ We will always remember.

9/11 is one of those days that we all remember exactly where we were and what we were doing when the “whole world turned around.” That day changed so many lives forever; it changed the world forever.

The tragic losses for the families of the many victims of 9/11 are shared in the hearts and memories of people around the world.

We would like to share a new music video, “Nineteen” by KarinP and Allyn depicting the realization that, in Karin’s words, “our young people and their families are sacrificing so much while they protect us.”

“Nineteen,” recorded by Taylor Hicks, tells an emotional story that remembers the brave men and women—many of them young—who serve in our Armed Forces. Our “American heroes.”

The members of our military and the supporting NATO forces have served their countries with honor over the past eight years despite the hardships they and their families have faced.

Thanks to Karin and Allyn for creating this emotional video and to our friends in Canada for their brave act of kindness when Canadian airports became safe havens for our planes on that morning as the world struggled to know what was happening.

Karin is from Canada and Allyn is from the United States…

We give our deepest thanks to the courageous men and women who serve our country in the Armed Forces and to their brave families who sacrifice more than we can know.

And our heartfelt thanks to the First Responders on that day, and every day, who risk everything to save and protect others.

For everyone whose world changed forever on 9/11…

We will always remember.

The American Revolution and The Civil War impacted how we looked at ourselves as a Nation. The Events of 9/11 changed how we looked at the world as it effected our Nation.
The video is beautifully synchronized and pays tribute to the people who are the cornerstone of this countries foundation.
Only in freedom of thought and deed , shall we be truly free.
