MIAMI, FL – Almost every American doesn’t forget where they were during the September 11 terrorist attacks that replaced our way of life on September 11, 2001.
The country gathered at ceremonies in the domain of Miami and other U. S. communities to commemorate the loss of life and resistance of Americans following unprecedented attacks through hijacked Al-Qaeda 3 fuel-laden advertising aircraft.
This year’s commemoration ceremonies are likely to be others on the 19th anniversary of the attacks, not only in the Miami area, but also in the United States, as we face an unprecedented challenge, this time from a viral enemy we can’t see or hear.
Some 6. 37 million Americans tested positive for coronavirus, leading network leaders to take more precautions and improve security measures. While some communities change occasions online, others cancel events as a precaution.
Miami-Dade is one of many counties planning public ceremonies on September 11 amid the pandemic.
“This year, the same old September 9/11 memorial in Tropical Park will be virtual,” a county spokesman told Patch. The video of the virtual monument will be broadcast on Friday, but will not be broadcast live.
Miami city officials said they were making plans any time this year, however, Miami Beach officials said they were making plans for personal ceremonies.
The Miami Beach Fire Department will conduct a personal ritual at Station 2, which houses the agency’s headquarters.
“We will also pay tribute to the lives lost on September 11 in a personal rite at the DP headquarters,” said a spokesman for the Miami Beach Police Department. “Then we’ll show percentages of images on our social platforms. “
Services at the September 11 attack sites in New York, the Pentagon, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, will also be others this year due to the pandemic. The organizers faced a number of obstacles.
In New York, Gov. Andrew Cuomo plans to send a state corps of fitness workers to New York to oversee the annual Tribute in Light ceremony, a commemoration of the September 11 attacks at the World Trade Center.
Cuomo said he’ll be available to “ensure this year’s tax is safe. “Cuomo’s announcement came a few days after the September 11 memorial and museum officials canceled the 2020 tribute due to coronavirus problems.
From now on, the new York City commemoration will continue to read the names of the victims. Family members will not read the names on the user this year; instead, recorded readings from the museum’s In Memoriam exhibition will be used for the ceremony.
In Arlington County, Virginia, just outside Washington, D. C. , the September 11 Pentagon Memorial remains closed to visitors due to coronavirus restrictions. Arlington County holds an annual commemoration ceremony, which will take place virtually this year.
In Pennsylvania, the National Park Service will hold an abbreviated rite in Shanksville. The 20-minute “Moment of Remembrance” will begin at 9:45 a. m. , with no key speakers or musical guests.
The names of the passenger and the team member of Flight 93 will be read aloud with the sound of the “remembrance bells”, according to the agency’s website.
President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden plan to travel to Shanksville on Friday, while Vice President Mike Pence and his wife, Karen, will attend September 11 commemoration ceremonies in New York this year.
