The object above the firemen is the remains of a 40' diesel generator that powered certain outside needs for the flight control tower that is to the far left and behind the red fire truck. There was a diesel fuel tank there that did cause a secondary explosion when the fuel finally lit off. There's speculation that one of the aircraft's engines impacted the trailer before striking the building, but I don't know if that was confirmed or not.

Sorry, should have read "40' diesel generator trailer." Preview twice, post once!

It is fantastic to have someone who knows what happened instead of us guessers trying to relate what we call facts. Thank you.
