I was in the Network Command center for IKON office systems in Norcross GA, doing a database project for them. The 1st plane had hit and everyone rushed to the 40 TV screens that normally monitored the different IKON regional offices.. as we were standing there the 2nd plane hit. I grabbed my cell, called my husband who was working for GE Power systems and told him to go to CNN.com (he had no access to TV). After a stunned silence he simply said, i'm leaving to pick up Spud at school and i'll meet you at home.
2.5 weeks later the U.S. Navy sent 3 shore patrol officers to our apartment to take my husband back into active duty.
