Mission Statement
The National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial, dedicated in 2008, remembers the 184 heroes lost at the Pentagon. The victims’ families, friends and survivors of the attack continue to tend this history and welcome the hundreds of thousands who visit the site. We need the help of dedicated volunteers to help us interact with visitors interested in this history. This rewarding opportunity to represent the Memorial by greeting visitors, answering questions, and listening to those who want to share their impressions of the Memorial and memories of September 11.
Description
The 9/11 Pentagon Memorial, which commemorates
the attack on our Nation’s Capital, in the heart of the
world’s greatest military force, welcomes up to
1 million visitors a year. A solemn tribute to the 184 lives
that were lost, it is nonetheless incomplete without an
Education Center-the type of facility already in place
at the other two sites of the day's attacks-to provide
context and assist with understanding.
