Firefigher-Tape

From 911Encyclopedia:

On September 9th, 2002 the NY Times reported, that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's analysis of its 78-minute tape of firefighter communications from Sept. 11 flatly contradicts the city's version of what went wrong. It raises questions about the thoroughness of the city's investigations into the worst loss of life any fire department has ever experienced - 343 men. At several points in the tape, fire commanders can be heard speaking with urgency. A commander alerts a colleague that he needs more companies to handle what he is facing in the south tower. The chiefs discuss the need to get more elevators into service, to carry firefighters up and to transport the injured back down. But nowhere on the tape is there any indication that firefighters had the slightest indication that the tower had become unstable or that it could fall.
