The stories that made it out of the World Trade Center Sept. 11 seemed
populated with only victims and heroes — from the firemen that rushed up
stairs while everyone else rushed down, to the salarymen who pushed, pulled
and carried each other out of the inferno to safety, to the rescue workers
who fought the still-fresh wreckage to salvage a handful more human lives.
As days went by, the "rescue" quickly became a gravedig, but the heroics of
the hour remain a proud counterpoint to an unimaginable tragedy. |
