A new book titled '9:11: A Time to Always Remember' by author and Navy veteran Jim Serger recounts 90 Americans' stories about where they were on Sept. 11, 2001.
A portion of the proceeds from ''911: A Time to Always Remember' will be donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
Seger himself was delivering ice — his first job after leaving the Navy more than 20 years ago — to a local grocery store when the attack happened. He remembers being called into a back room during the delivery to watch the news on a small, black-and-white TV.Author Jim Serger reflects on the combination of the numbers 9 and 11 and what it means to everyday Americans in his new book.
"Everybody was connected as a country on 9/11," Serger explained."So, that's why I wrote this book … At 9:11 p.m., we all remember the sacrifice. We remember the firemen, the first responders [or] some stranger who was [a] friend on that day." Los Angeles residents line-up to donate blood at the Red Cross to assist victims of the World Trade Center terrorist attack.
