9-11: A roll call of the dead

All 9-11 entries here.

110 Stories. The poem about this.

Who escaped and who didn't, and why:

The right reaction was panic. To survive the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the right thing to do was to follow instinct, not procedure. Don't wait to find out what is happening. Don't go back for your briefcase. Don't heed announcements that the building is safe. Don't take the stairs; take the elevator.

Rules of thumb generated by disasters may save lives, but for most, the difference between life and death was pure chance.

An extremely detailed timeline of events, including maps, photos of victims, quotes from cell phone calls, links to news stories.

Front pages of newspapers.

A roll call of the dead:

9-11 dead, by country.

Those who died in the Pentagon attack. (Also a Pentagon Memorial site.)

Dead of United 93.

Dead of Flight 77.

Dead of American Airlines 11, which struck the north tower.

Dead of United 175, which struck the WTC south tower.

Dead of the World Trade Center (known as of 9-11-02).

Vietnam combat vet and 9-11 hero Rick Rescorla.

Firefighter chaplain and gay Catholic priest and 9-11 hero Mychal Judge.
