The week following September 11, 2001
at The Citadel

The Friday afternoon parade on September 14 was dedicated to the families
and the victims of the terrorist attack.
Flags all around campus flew at half staff.
Visitors brought their own flags to parade. The public affairs staff passed out red, white, and blue ribbons to the crowd. And the regimental band played God Bless America.
A record turn-out at the monthly blood drive caused Red Cross workers to actually turn away donors. The next scheduled blood drive is October 16 in Mark Clark Hall.
Cadets waited patiently during the rush to give blood. Three hundred pints were donated.
Maj. Gen. Grinalds took time out of his busy schedule to give blood.
