WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - More than 1,500 students, faculty and staff from UNCW gathered last year to create a special memorial in commemoration of the anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy.
They came together in formation to represent the twin towers and the pentagon and held up the name of a victim of the terrorist attacks.
Even though the event took place last year, the video is circulating again to honor of all those who lost their lives and the first responders and veterans who continue to serve the United States.
According to UNCW, the unique event was created and organized by students. Watch their work in the video above.
