[Sca-cooks] UA 93 (Pittsburgh crash)

[Amanda Baker]

Greetings,

        This information came from another email list which I
am on. I have removed most of the personal details, but
Jeremy Glick was the nephew-in-law of one of the list members,
and I therefore have no reason to doubt it's veracity.

> Today was a tragedy for all of America and to my family, a very personal
> one. Our niece's husband, Jeremy Glick was on United flight 93 this
> morning. When the Hijackers took control of flight 93. Jeremy called my
> niece who in-turn conferenced him to 911. Jeremy relayed to the police what
> was happening as the hijacking unfolded. As our niece listened, Jeremy
> told the police there were three Arab terrorists with knives and a large
> red box that they claimed contained a bomb. Jeremy tracked the second by
> second details and relayed them to the police by phone. After several
minutes of
> describing the scene, Jeremy and several other passengers decided there was
> nothing to lose by rushing the hijackers. Although United Flight 93 crashed
> outside of Pittsburgh, with the loss of all souls. Jeremy and the other
> patriotic heroes saved the lives of many people on the ground that would
> have died if the Arab terrorists had been able to complete their heinous
> mission.
>
> Please offer your prayers for all of those who perished or were injured in
> this tragic of all days and to our niece and her 2-month-old child who are
> left without their loving Husband and Father.
>
> May we remember Jeremy and the other brave souls as heroes, soldiers and
> Americans' on United flight 93 whom so gallantry gave their lives to save
> many others.

        Our thoughts are with you all. I hope that we can help from
beyond the USA, in this terrible time, and in the difficult months
which will undoubtedly follow.

        Amanda
