Chief Warrant Officer (CW03) Edward Williams was one of the two keynote speakers for Norfolk Naval Shipyard's annual Patriot Day Fall-In for Colors Sept. 11, sharing his personal story of being in Manhattan the day the towers fell. "To see that happen and to watch the smoke and debris run across the water as if it were a sandstorm – I will never forget that. We all ran, trying to get away. None of us knew why this was happening to us," he said. "So when we think of Patriot Day, we need to ask ourselves, how did this event change our lives? Remember where you were 23 years ago and how it’s impacted you today."
