NEW YORK, N.Y. – A new exhibit at the 9/11 Memorial Museum is keeping the memory of that day and its aftermath alive, even for those who didn’t live through it, as the museum highlights 15 years since the raid that killed Usama bin Laden.
“A third of the U.S. population has been born since then, so it’s not just kids,” Jay Weinkam, executive vice president of government and community affairs at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum, told Fox News Digital. “It is 25 years later, and it’s our teachers, our first responders, men and women in our military forces, educating them on what happened and what the response was.”
“Our Flag Was Still There” showcases flags related to 9/11 as the nation marks 25 years since the 2001 terrorist attacks and celebrates its 250th anniversary.
The history-altering terrorist attacks killed nearly 3,000 people when hijacked planes struck the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
