Pretty somber day today as the Nation pauses to reflect 8 Years after terrorist attacks. According to the Washington Post President Obama marked the first anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks since his election with a national call to public service, a wreath-laying and a solemn moment of silence.

We along with Americans across the country will honor the victims and heroes of the 9/11 tragedy during the first-ever federally recognized September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance.
