I've been wondering who these earliest heroes were....

> * United Flight 93 passengers Todd Beamer, Jeremy Glick, Mark Bingham,
> and Lou Nacke.
> 
> These four men realized that terrorists planned to crash their plane
> into the White House or the Capitol. If that was allowed to happen,
> hundreds of people would die.
> 
> So with a quiet declaration -- "Let's roll!" -- and armed only with
> courage, these passengers struck back against the terrorists.
> 
> We don't know exactly what happened in those final, frenzied moments.
> But the plane swerved, dipped, and then crashed into an unpopulated
> rural area in Pennsylvania.
> 
> These four men didn't wait for anyone's orders. They simply took a
> quick vote and took matters into their own hands. They saved countless
> lives in the process.
> 
> Perhaps General George Patton was thinking of these heroes when he
> said: "It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men who died. Rather, we
> should thank God that such men lived."
