Woodring on September 11, I was working as a security officer at World Trade Center (2nd Tower, 42nd floor).

My shift was 8 AM- to 4 PM. The first plane hit the first tower at 9:20 AM, therefore, you can imagine where I was.

I opened the exit for every employee that I was responsible for and I left the building last.

While I was outside, the second plane hit the 2nd tower.

I had to run on Manhattan bridge to Brooklyn.

I spent 3 months without a job. I will never forget this time, and I don't want to be in this situation anymore.

Wow...
