Remembering Queen Elizabeth's 9/11 tribute

President Biden on Sunday recalled a message Queen Elizabeth sent on Sept. 11, 2001 — her first outreach to a stunned and grieving country and one she had to break a 600-year-old tradition to deliver. Norah O'Donnell reports.

The fact that she broke with a 600 year old tradition to pay respect to the United States was truly moving, generous, and will never be forgotten.

It is one of the many, MANY reasons why the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom is stronger than a weld. Truly unbreakable.

Rest In Peace, Queen Elizabeth Regina II. God Save The King! 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Imagine being an American overseas, likely unable to return home and unsure when you would, and hearing your national anthem played live by an ally. I wouldn't be able to hold back tears. That's a genuinely kind gesture.

Broke my heart and made me cry seeing this. Jesus, I always knew she was a good woman but I never knew they did this for us.

The queen lived through many of American tragedies . And paid respects

I’m half British, half American. First generation American on my dad’s side. I was brought up to love both countries, but my heart is British. That being said, I will always love the late Queen Elizabeth. My middle name is after her. So I feel I have a bit of her always with me in my heart. She will be deeply missed for a long time to come. Still coming to terms with the loss ❤

May the queen and all the victims of 9/11 rest in complete peace.

We were once citizens of the British empire, then enemies, and finally allies. We will always have a connection with Britain.

RIP Queen Elizabeth
