At work. Just a couple of miles from the Pentagon as the crow flies. My wife actually saw the aircraft fly by from her window. She was in the same office building as I. The plane was not real close to our building but at building level (3 stories) and in a non-flight pattern. We could see the huge amount of smoke form the Pentagon. I was standing next to a work friend who was saying he hoped his Brother was OK. His Brother was killed in the Pentagon. My Wife had worked in the Pentagon two years before on the Army Staff. The plane hit where her old office was at. They sent all Government emplyees home at the same time. It was the worst traffic mess anyone had ever experienced, but this time nobody was complaining. It was impossible to make a cell phone call to let your family know you were OK. We both made frequent trips to the Pentagon. So for all our family members knew, we could of been there. Our office was 20 miles from home, and it took us almost two and a half hours to get home. Then we were able to call family and say we were OK.
