Robins commemorates 10th anniversary of 9/11
The 9/11 Pentagon stone, acquired by Air Force Reserve Command history office, is an artifact from the West Wall of the Pentagon that was hit by a hijacked airliner on 9/11. The coordinated attacks that day killed 184 people at the Pentagon, another 2,749 at the World Trade Center and 40 aboard Flight 93 that crashed in Shanksville, Pa. Among the 9/11 fatalities was Air Force Reserve Maj. LeRoy Homer, first officer on Flight 93. The stone, approximately 40 inches long, 8 inches wide and six inches deep, represents the sacrifices of thousands of American men and women who gave their lives on 9/11. This stone also recognizes the men and women who serve in the U.S. military in defense of freedom. (U.S. Air Force photo/Philip Rhodes)
