"20" is an oral history podcast presenting 20 stories on the 20th Anniversary of September 11th.  "20" was produced to help future generations better remember and form a deeper emotional connection to a tragic, yet unifying moment in American history.  Many young adults were too young to know 9/11 other than through the limited time and space of a textbook or an annual memorial.  "20" is for them so that they will never forget the 2,977 men, women, and children lost on that day to terrorists attacking our country. "20" is brought to you by the San Diego Military Advisory Council, DS Studio, and Cloudcast Media, with funding generously provided by Asymmetrical Evolution and SEALpreneurship.  Never Forget.  20 Stories, 20th Anniversary.
