Brochure on Pentagon Memorial laid in. Map. Notes. Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Amid all the stories of tragedy and heroism on September 11, there is one tale that has yet to be told-the gripping account of ordinary men and women braving the inferno at the Pentagon to rescue friends and co-workers, save the nation's military headquarters, and defend their country. Pentagon firefighters Alan Wallace and Mark Skipper had just learned the shocking news that planes had struck the World Trade Center when they saw something equally inconceivable: a twin-engine jetliner flying straight at them. It was American Airlines Flight 77, rushing toward its target. In his Pentagon office, Army major David King was planning a precautionary evacuation when the room suddenly erupted in flames. Arlington firefighters Derek Spector, Brian Roache, and Ron Christman, among the first responders at the scene, were stunned by the sight that met them: a huge flaming hole gouged into the Pentagon's side, a lawn strewn with smoking debris, and thousands of people, some badly injured, stumbling away from what would become one of the most daunting fires in American history. For more than twenty-four hours, Arlington firefighters and other crews faced some of the most dangerous and unusual circumstances imaginable. The size and structure of the Pentagon itself presented unique challenges, compelling firefighters to devise ingenious tactics and make bold decisions-until they finally extinguished the fire that threatened to cripple America's military infrastructure just when it was needed most. Granted unprecedented access to the major players in the valiant response efforts, Patrick Creed and Rick Newman take us step-by-step through the harrowing minutes, hours, and days following the crash of American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon's western facade. Providing fascinating personal stories of the firefighters and rescuers, a broader view of how the U.S. national security command structure was held intact, and a sixteen-page insert of dramatic photographs, Firefight is a unique testament to the fortitude and resilience of America. From an on-line JMU posting: "In October 2005, Maj. Patrick Creed, who graduated from JMU on an ROTC scholarship, received a telegram announcing his second term of duty in Iraq. After spending five intense months training at Fort Bragg, N.C., Patrick was deployed to the Diyala Province near Baqubah, about 35 miles northeast of Baghdad. He serves as a civil affairs officer on a three-man team that plays a hands-on role in rebuilding Iraq. Patrick works with local civilians, government and the Iraqi military to help them become self-sufficient, even attending local city council meetings to help guide Iraqi citizens in building a democracy. He also works on water and electricity projects and is re-establishing clinics in the country. Patrick has seen some of the worst carnage at the front lines--after being wounded in action in August 2006, he received a Purple Heart. " From an on-line posting: "Rick Newman is the award-winning Chief Business Correspondent for U.S. News & World Report and author of Rebounders: How Winners Pivot From Setback To Success (Ballantine). An ideal keynote speaker for corporate events, entrepreneurship conferences, and small-business groups, Newman is a frequent moderator and panelist at the annual Milken Institute Global Conference in Beverly Hills, California and other events. He offers a myth-busting and uplifting presentation explaining how anybody can turn adversity to their advantage, along with clear-eyed takeaways on how ordinary people can prosper amidst the momentous changes upending the way Americans live and work. Newman is also a frequent commentator on MSNBC, CNN, Fox, NPR, and TV and radio networks across the country." First edition. First edition [stated]. First printing [stated].…
