Shortly after the events of 9/11, now Special Education Department aide Nicholas Harrington prepares to be deployed to Afghanistan. Harrington joined the U.S. Army just after he graduated high school in 2000. "You know, in the army, you train for combat, and you train for battle overseas or enemy forces, but during a time like 9/11, you don’t really know what to expect,” Harrington said. "So, it was kind of scary in that aspect, not really knowing what to expect. That was on everyone’s mind, just, you know, family and friends, and the American way of life. It was literally under attack."
