In many ways, the devastating attack on the Twin Towers on Sept. 11, 2001, resembled the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor nearly 60 years earlier. Both are seared into the nation’s consciousness for their devastating casualties and their profound impact on our sense of security.
The 9/11 attack, of course, differed sharply in that it was an act of terrorism, intended to kill as many innocent civilians as possible. On that day, nearly 2,800 individuals were killed at the World Trade Center, and my home county of Westchester suffered the loss of 111 people.
