More News Articles, Photos, Personal Accounts:
The photographs and personal accounts leave me speechless. I remain in shock, and my heart aches deeply for all the families, friends and colleagues who’ve lost loved ones. Many are still waiting to hear the confirmation, many are still hoping their loved ones will be found alive amidst the rubble.
“Look elsewhere for words. I have not yet found any that does what I saw justice.”
-- Christopher Casciano,
photographer, describing the WTC attack.
