"We need to pay attention to them. They're not just disposable people."

That's a quote from James Gandolfini, who is Executive Producer of HBO's Alive Day Memories: Home from Iraq, a moving compilation of interviews (conducted by Gandolfini) of Iraq War veterans.

If you have HBO, please take the time to watch this. I did, and it wasn't easy; but it was something I think I needed to see. I hear the statistics on the radio every day, the number of dead and wounded in Iraq, and that's all that they had become to me: numbers.

On this day, especially, it's important to remember not only the people who died in the attack itself, but also that there are still people losing life and limb, every day, because of what happened on 9/11.
