Let’s roll! Inspirational words that may prove as immortal as Remember the Alamo! Remember Pearl Harbor, and other patriotic American war slogans. The words were originally used by airline passenger Todd Beamer to rally fellow passen- gers against terrorists who had hijacked United Airlines Flight 93 on the beginning of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. All 40 passen- gers and the crew died when the plane crashed in Pennsylvania, but much greater loss of life in the Washington, D.C., area was prevented. President George W. Bush has since used the phrase in various speeches. |
