ANOTHER 9/11 VICTIM IDENTIFIED
From The American Legion Magazine, September, 2019
In a sobering reminder of 9/11’s legacy, New York City medical examiners have identified the remains of another person killed at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. As Time reports, “The victim’s name, which is being withheld, was confirmed through DNA testing of remains recovered in 2013. This marks the 1,643rd person identified since the attacks. The medical examiner reports that around 40 percent of the 2,753 people reported missing as a result of the 9/11 attacks remain unidentified.
MY TAKE: It is truly sobering to consider that more than 19 years after we were attacked by the Islamofascist savages, the tedious work of identifying the remains of so many of our countrymen is still ongoing. May G-d bless, help, and comfort those who continue to perform this gruesome yet so necessary task.
