::New Documents revisit 9/11 Attacks::

Thousands of pages of oral histories of firefighters' recollections of Sept. 11, 2001 were released Friday. Firefighters in this photo arrived on the scene after the collapse of the first World Trade Center tower.

NEW YORK - The Fire Department on Friday released thousands of pages of oral histories recorded by firefighters on Sept. 11 and hours of radio transmissions, a vast mine of records that evoked anew the chaos and horror of the attack.

Firefighter Kirk Long, whose Engine 1 was sent to the World Trade Center's north tower — the first to be struck by a plane and the second to collapse — described rushing up a stairway as evacuees were coming down.

"I was watching every person coming down, looked at their face, just to make them happy that they were getting out and we were going in, and everything was OK," Long said in his oral history.

Hmm, I don't really know. Anyone else want to comment on this?
