• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

We went to the memorial site a few years ago. Very moving.

A few names of victims.

I just read a dreadful statistic that more firefighters have died of related health issues than those killed on the day.
 
I went there when the memorial site was being built - and even then it was very moving. Also visited St Paul's Chapel, which is less than 100 yards from the towers, and survived their collapse.

This chapel became a haven for rescue and recovery workers at Ground Zero, and contained thousands of stickers, letters and pictures left by bereaved family members. 😥
