The most heart-wrenching discovery was that a silver object melted onto the cross' left side was the remains of a firefighter's jacket who died in the blast. Firefighters say the fire-resistant jacket turned silver and took on the look and consistency of metal when it encountered extreme heat and fire. Now, it is wrapped around the left arm of the cross.

I hate to post yet again about the same topic, but I realized, since this has been stuck in my head a good part of the day, that I think we have the picture of the fireman's melted silver-ized jacket on our hard drive this whole time. I never realized the relevance until your post, Classy. Is this the jacket they're referring to in this picture?

Here is the picture so you can see what I finally saw. It does speak - more than a thousand words... and tears.
