Have you noticed all the reminders of the tragedy that occurred.
on September 11? Television news programs, signs, billboards, and.
American flags cause us to go back to the day it all began. The.
nation seems to have been united since then. The patriotism in.
our country is greater than I can ever remember.
The incidents of September 11,2001, were very sad. Two.
planes hit the World Trade Center, and another plane crashed into.
the Pentagon. Between the three, thousands have been killed. The.
attacks have broken down the barriers. As Americans, we thought.
we were indestructible. An attack could never occur in our own.
country, but it did.
Since that dreadful day we will never forget, people all.
around the nation have begun to express their patriotism.
American flags are everywhere. They are a symbol of the love and.
pride of our own country. Flags are on cars, and many have them.
displayed on their homes. Also flags symbolize the sorrow for.
those involved in the tragedy. They make us recognize the.
situation that the United States of America will be united. .
Being united as a nation is a way of patriotism. It made us.
realize how wonderful it is to be an American. News headlines on.
television read, "Attack on America." We are all Americans, so it.
made that attack seem personal to us all. It seems as though we.
all know someone who knows someone that was involved. Even.
television commercials air things about people that have died in.
the buildings. Americans are full of sorrow for them. It unites.
us. .
Patriotism has spread like a wildfire throughout the nation.
Since the tragedy, the country has regained extreme patriotism.
The great number of flags being displayed around the towns.
magnify the expression of the unbounded pride of America. It is.
sad that such an event had to happen for Americans to unite, but.
it will never be forgotten. America has gained the salvation of.
patriotism.
