This Sunday marks the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on America and the beginning of the War on Terror.  Since that date in 2001 over 9000 Americans have lost their lives in the terrorist attack that September day and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Join us on the USS Yorktown at Patriots Point this Sunday to commemorate Patriot Day. Our ceremony begins at 8:46 AM (the time the North Tower was hit) and will end around noon as all the names of those lost are read aloud.  Watch the videos below and remember our country's past...and the brave men and women who seek to keep America safe!
