I hadn't turned on the news that morning and went to work delivering pizzas. I listened to the radio, and there wasn't any music on my usual station, just the DJs talking about SOMETHING bad, and basically assuming the listeners knew what the hell they were talking about. It wasn't until I got home from working an 8-hour shift that I was able to turn on the TV and see it for myself. My parents had been divorced for years, but we all got together with my brother at our friends' house. The husband and my brother were in the Army National Guard at the time, and were wanting to "go make bullet holes and craters". It was shortly after that that my brother decided to go full-service with the Army. He just retired a little while ago with 20 years service.
