A friend of one of our sons was in the North Tower that day, on an upper floor in the BofA offices on a trip along with his boss from Charlotte. He told us that his boss, a former Marine Captain, took charge of the floor and ordered everyone out, despite the security announcement on the PA telling people to remain on the floors. 4 of the staff remained, never to be seen again. They made their way down, helping some with disabilities to the safety of the street, and then made a bee-line to the Brooklyn Bridge to get clear of the mayhem.
Years later he got a package from the NYC Police property division containing his charred briefcase, his wallet and some melted coins, how that survived no one knows. Watching all the news footage from that day this morning on Fox News brought it all back.
