The amount of raw destruction and loss of life was numbing. I could find no words to describe the dusty, smoldering scene before me. I had been angry at the murderers. But to stand before the carnage broke my heart-- for the thousands of dead, the grieving families, the heroes lost. When I later toured the Pentagon, I realized the enemy had targeted our military stronghold, as well as our economic stronghold. They were out to destroy us within our own country. When I returned to McGuire Air Force Base and Fort Dix in New Jersey, I understood we would be sending our troops into harm's way, once again, to defend liberty and justice and the American way of life.

- Jim Saxton, after examining the scenes of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
