Three years ago, Hokie nation lost 32 friends and loved ones. If you'd like to become ever prouder of your school, just jump onto Facebook for a minute or two.
A lot will be written today about that day and the years since, mostly by much better writers than we have here. So we'll keep this short.
None of us will ever forget that day. But the one thing that I will personally always remember is walking on the drillfield among the thousands of signs, cards, letters, and makeshift memorials. What truly struck me was the outpouring of support from other schools, many of which I'd never heard of.
We've all heard the poem in the following video. It's still just as meaningful today as it was in 2007. But what really gets me every time I watch this is the chant at the end. We're all Hokies today.
LET'S GO HOKIES!!
