It was a horrific act of terrorism."Pan Am Flight 103 from London to New York explodes in midair over Lockerbie, Scotland, an hour after departure. A bomb that had been hidden inside an audio cassette player detonated inside the cargo area when the plane was at an altitude of 31,000 feet. All 259 passengers, including 35 Syracuse University students returning home for the holidays, were killed in the explosion. In addition, 11 residents of Lockerbie were killed in the shower of airplane parts that unexpectedly fell from the sky."
By the way, Syracuse University held a special 25th celebration in 2013. As we mentioned above, 35 young students were killed by this act of terrorism.
We can not forget the innocent lives of PAN AM 103.
