A former US president shared his experience of a major attack. He was at an elementary school when the incident occurred. Initially, he thought it was an accident after hearing about a plane hitting a building. It became clear that something more sinister was happening when another plane hit.

The president's movements were altered as a result, with him being taken across the country instead of returning to the capital. He spoke about this from his center, two days before a significant anniversary. Further details about his account are available.
