'Flags In The Air' Above Lake Elsinore Part Of 9/11 Commemoration

LAKE ELSINORE, CA — The sky above Skydive Elsinore will be red, white and blue Saturday morning as part of a memorial to remember those who died in the 9/11 attacks.

A team of demonstration skydivers will take to the air around 8 a.m. as part of the "Flags in the Air" 20th-anniversary commemoration.

Twenty years ago, 2,977 lives were lost in the attacks in New York City, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania. Many who died have still not been identified.

According to The New York Times, forensic scientists are testing and retesting more than 22,000 body parts that were recovered from the World Trade Center site — some the size of a Tic Tac. Two more victims from that NYC attack were identified this week, according to an NPR report.

All are invited to watch Saturday morning's tribute, which is free to attend. Get more information here.
