Excerpt from the book...

"It was September 11, 2001 - a day whose events would change my life forever.  I was destined by the Lord to be one of those who survived the ‘Ground Zero' terrorist attack on the Pentagon. 

 

...Suddenly, I heard two, successive, loud, blasts in front of me! I was in shock and disbelief as I felt the building shudder and shake.  I stood frozen in place as I looked up and saw the windows crack in front of me, and then implode into the bay (not outward) where I was standing!  The sensation of the walls and ceiling bursting into chaotic life all around me was absolutely incredible.…

It looked like a war zone!

 

Explosions continued and the smoke became thicker by the second..."
