7-14 Days: Our Time is at Hand

In her book 7-14 Days: Our Time Is at Hand, Noah Waters relives the immediate aftermath of the worst attack ever to hit this nation's shore through an incredible story of maritime response. Days before the plane hit the first tower the southern coastline was preparing for the arrival of Hurricane Gabrielle. Immediately after the attacks, the country was preparing for war against an unknown enemy. Noah Waters wrote the book because she believes that little has ever been written about one of the most important specialized groups following the September attacks. Everyday Americans who were strangers, were brought together, became friends, warriors, and protectors of one the United States most important International gateways. It is vital that our country knows how these individuals were pulled together to create for the first time in United States history, a team of maritime law enforcement professionals to face the threat of terrorism.
