Where were you?
Major Jordon Wilkinson and Georgie Burke are at the footprints of the twin towers, looking across the remnants.
“William Construction.” Jordon states quietly.
“What?” Gerogie asks, a bit confused.
“That’s where I was when this happened.” Jordon explained. "We had just loaded up our equipment and supplies when our boss ran out to us; all he had to say was ‘Twin Towers’ and ‘Attack’ and we all piled into the main office to watch his TV and see what happened. We caught the aftermath of the first tower and saw the second come down. It was over an hour away but our boss told us to take our dozers, our cranes, and anything else we had to move rubble and head down there to help with the recovery efforts; he rented out a fleet of Semis and busses to get everything and everyone down there. Two months later I enlisted.”
“I was still a sophomore in high school when it happened; we were just starting second period when the principle came over the speaker to tell the teachers to turn on their TVs. We saw the aftermath of everything. We didn’t do anything for the period as we watched.” Georgie wipes the tears from her eyes.
“I met quite a few folks during my tour who were affected by the attack; a lot of them didn’t make it through the first year.”
He stands at attention and salutes; Georgie sees this and takes off her hat, holding it to her heart.
“May all those affected rest in peace.” Jordon says, eyes tearing up.
Major America
Couple small additions to this:
Plus, a mid-battle pose.
I tried using different shades of the same color due to the fact it's a homemade costume, the colors aren't gonna match exactly.
And MAN is shading hard.
