Al-Qaeda hijacked 2 planes, which hit the Twin Towers in New York City. A third plane hit the military headquarters (The Pentagon) outside Washington, D.C., A fourth plane hit a Pennsylvania field in Shanksville after passengers fought back. Hundreds of firefighters, police officers, and medical workers died saving others. Cities hold annual moments of silence, reading names of the victims.
