Where were you when you first heard about the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks? How did you hear? And what was your reaction?

As we approach the 10th anniversary of the attacks, The Bellingham Herald is collecting memories of that Tuesday morning from Whatcom County residents.

We'd like to include some of those memories in our anniversary coverage. Your submissions will be part of a special website honoring the heroes and victims of 9/11's tragic events.

Submissions may be edited and become the property of The Bellingham Herald.
