00:06.330 --> 00:07.460
uh huh

00:13.940 --> 00:17.270
It's been 20 years since our nation and

00:17.270 --> 00:19.492
the building where we work was attacked

00:19.492 --> 00:22.460
on september the 11th of 2000 and one

00:25.130 --> 00:27.690
where so many of us , our lives are now

00:27.690 --> 00:30.150
very different And for a new generation

00:30.150 --> 00:33.160
born since then 9 11 can feel far away .

00:33.640 --> 00:35.840
The Pentagon is a living memorial to

00:35.840 --> 00:38.840
the 125 people who tragically lost

00:38.840 --> 00:41.740
their lives here on 9 11 . And as we

00:41.740 --> 00:44.300
look toward the 20th commemoration , we

00:44.300 --> 00:46.356
also look back on the lives of those

00:46.356 --> 00:49.830
who were here on that day . Many of us

00:49.830 --> 00:52.260
who survived the attack still work in

00:52.260 --> 00:54.890
the building , still proudly serving

00:54.890 --> 00:58.540
our country . Two decades later our

00:58.540 --> 01:01.860
stories are powerful stories of courage ,

01:02.940 --> 01:06.540
of loss of resilience . It's especially

01:06.540 --> 01:09.250
important to hear them now we tell our

01:09.250 --> 01:11.306
stories to remember what it was like

01:11.306 --> 01:14.150
that day , to remember those we lost ,

01:14.640 --> 01:17.030
but also to teach younger americans

01:17.030 --> 01:19.980
about the sort of nation , we are about

01:19.980 --> 01:23.140
the heroes who defend us And the

01:23.140 --> 01:25.330
families who make that possible .

01:25.340 --> 01:29.840
20

01:29.840 --> 01:32.630
years later we tell the stories of our

01:32.630 --> 01:34.750
September September September 11th .

01:42.640 --> 01:44.550
Yeah , mm

01:46.940 --> 01:47.140
