On the recordMarch 19, 2002
On September 11, a day forever to be marked in infamy in United States history, one of our Nation's historic landmarks and the operational center of the world's most powerful military was struck by the evils of international terrorism. This heinous act caught us by surprise; however, in the days that followed, our steely resolve triggered an overwhelming military response and an unprecedented effort to rebuild our defiled monument. Titled the Phoenix Project, the renovation of the Pentagon is an ongoing demonstration of U.S. technological and civil engineering advances.
