Yes! Memory eternal!

I read about this - which occurred well before my time - on some anniversary many years ago. It was an account by someone who had survived - I don’t recall whether the writer was male or female - after losing their father and then seeing an older sister slide down the deck into the flames. The writer followed a man out of the wreckage who was so badly injured that his some of his bones were visible and it didn’t even bother him to push aside or rip out red hot wires and things that impeded their progress. He died, but the writer survived.

Decades later, on 9/11, I recalled this. A scene of total horror.
