    Piper at the Pentagon 9/11 Tribute

    A lone piper played Amazing Grace as he walked across the 9/11 memorial built at the Pentagon. Very Nice.

    Very moving hearing Amazing Grace and seeing the area he marched through.

    I wonder why they put a recorded version over the video?

    The Fort Riley KS 9-11 Memorial ceremony was very nice, no pipers though and the turn out was minimal at best. Seven years ago I stood on a similar parade field at Fort Huachuca AZ hearing the tragic news and what would be the start of the GWOT.

    << I wonder why they put a recorded version over the video? >>

    This wasn't recorded during the service - where are the attendees?

    Perhaps this was the best 'take' the newsies had to offer.

    Glad to see it, though he played a little fast for such an event, in my opinion.

    Nice job and thanks for your service.
