On a personal note, I remember this date as it was 1 week before my sixth birthday. I can remember watching it on television. I remember the upset in our house, sadness. As the years went by, I learned what happened and understood why there was such sadness.
We didn't have constant information back then, 3 channels on t.v. which went off the air at midnight. But this incident was felt nationwide and world wide.
