Other Photographers who have contributed to this website. Thanks
Thanks to Sergeant First Class
Kevin Kirchoffer, U. S. Army, Texas for
his poems on the "9-11 Journal" page.
From
Sergeant First Class Kevin Kirchoffer: "I've been in the Army 19
1/2 years. We have helped so many other countries and have been
all over the world, but the reason I wrote the poems is to honor the
people that lost their lives on 9/11/2001. In the military for so
long, when something like this happens to us at home, military
personnel really take it personal because we are now doing what we do
for the people of our country and our freedom. Military
personnel took it very personal when 9/11 happened. I have lost many
friends over in Iraq that worked for me and I still talk to their
parents and its funny how none of them regret their loved ones joining
or losing their lives for the freedom of all."
