9/11/06: It Looked Like A Fingertip…

By Brian 

NBC’s Brian Williams reflects on 9/11:

“During my first trip to the pit, under police escort, I found what appeared to be a human fingertip, dusty and trampled and misshapen, sitting there in plain sight at the edge of the smoldering pile. Heat still radiated and pockets were still smoking. I’ve thought back on my find, which was bagged and taken away. Was it identified? Was it all that was left of someone? One of my neighbors buried the jawbone of her son. That’s all they ever found.”
