President Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden will both visit Shanksville, Pennsylvania, the site of the Flight 93 National Memorial, next Friday on the 19th anniversary of 9/11.
Flight 93 was hijacked by al Qaeda terrorists on Sept., 11, 2001, and is believed to have been intended to hit the U.S. Capitol building before crashing in a Somerset County field after passengers attempted to retake the aircraft.
The exact timing of each of their visits is not known though there will be a memorial ceremony scheduled at 9:45 a.m., meaning Trump and Biden’s visit could overlap.
“To mark the 19th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on our country and to honor and remember the lives lost, President @realDonaldTrump and @FLOTUS will travel to Shanksville, Pennsylvania, next Friday, to the @Flight93NPS memorial,” White House spokesperson, Jude Deere announced on Twitter Wednesday.
