I was on the 3rd Fleet command ship USS Coronado in San Diego. I had just completed my watch, and was looking forward to a nice quiet day off. I had just finished eating breakfast on the mess decks.
Then somebody started yelling about the attack and they turned on CNN. As soon as I realized what had happened, I went straight back up to my work space--I knew we weren't going anywhere.
Sure enough, I didn't get to leave the boat for 4 days. Damn terrorists.

I was in my office in San Francisco fixing our server. My boss called me and he said to pack up and leave. I didn't know what was happening then. Fortunately, there was a television in the break room which I turned on immediately. As soon as I saw images, I saw a video of the second plane crash into the Twin Towers.
I was completely frozen. For a few minutes, I stood there in front of the television while thoughts raced in my mind.
I suddenly found myself in the middle of chaos and confusion. I packed up and left for home. Unfortunately, everyone else was in a rush too. I got home 3 hours later which was just too much since it only took me 30 minutes tops.
So many questions left unanswered. Somehow, I suddenly felt vulnerable. Unsafe. Unprotected. I was scared and the horror didn't go away instantly.

I was on my way to work that day, driving on the expressway in Chicago. When I arrived at work (the bank) I was told that we might close because we could possibly be a terrorist target. I was terrified and extremely emotional that day. God bless and watch over all those people that this tragedy affected.
