“And of the recovery teams in NY finding human remains of people who had survived the initial blast and destruction, only to die when they couldn’t be rescued days to weeks later.”
I hadn’t heard that one. Perhaps someone got it mixed up with the (true) stories of sailors trapped in sunken warships at Pearl Harbor?
Absolutely not.
Someone working at the airline got on our plane, the blood drained from his face. Either his brother or close friend was part of the rescue/recovery teams and he had just heard from them.
