As the American flag flies at half-mast, members of the 48th Fighter Wing, RAF Lakenheath, UK, lower their heads during a three-minute period of silence. The event is in memory of the victims of the September 11th terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centers Twin Towers in New York and at the Pentagon. Hijackers deliberately flew civilian airliners into the buildings, killing themselves, the passengers and thousands on the ground

The American flag flies over the USS UTAH (AG 160) Memorial. The UTAH, originally a battleship prior to World War I, was later modified as a mobile bombing target and anti-aircraft gunnery training ship. Destroyed by torpedoes from Nakajima B5N2 Kate bombers on December 7, 1941, the ship's remains are being studied by Navy divers of Mobile Diving Salvage Unit One as part of Project Sea Mark, a four-year undesea survey and mapping study of naval historic sites. The study is being conducted in conjunction with the US Park Service's Submerged Cultural Resource Unit
