- Then came the fire : personal accounts from the Pentagon, 11 September 2001 / by Lofgren, Stephen J.;
Overview: On the morning of 11 September 2001, Middle Eastern terrorists hijacked four passenger airliners along the east coast of the United States, one of which they flew into the Pentagon. The crash, ensuing fire, and smoke killed 125 military personnel, Department of Defense civilians, and contractors in the Pentagon in addition to those on the plane. For hundreds of the building's occupants, the period after the crash was a struggle to help themselves and coworkers escape and survive. Two days after the attack, the U.S. Army Center of Military History began an extensive project to document the historic event through oral history interviews. Published for the incident's tenth anniversary, Then Came the Fire is an anthology of excerpts from those interviews. This collection highlights the personal accounts of participants who witnessed some aspect of the events in the Pentagon that day: the survivors, some of whom were injured; policemen; firefighters; medical personnel; observers; others involved in the rescue and recovery efforts; and building occupants who began picking up the pieces.Includes bibliographical references and index.Foreword -- Preface -- Brig Gen Clyde A Vaughn -- Alan Wallace -- Michael DiPaula -- Yvette Buzard -- Richard M Hudnall -- Maj Lorie A Brown -- Assistant Fire Chief James H Schwartz -- Capt Thomas Panther -- Ceci Mayhew -- Leona G Shaw -- Col Joseph M Tedesco Jr -- Charlene Ryan -- Neal Shelley -- Sheila Moody -- Janice A Jackson -- Charles Young -- Col Mark Perrin -- Maj David Irvin -- Capt Darrell Oliver -- Capt Lincoln Leibner -- Lt Col Victor M Correa -- Lt Col Thomas Cleary III -- Lt Col Brian D Birdwell -- Melanie Birdwell -- Brenda Hirschi -- Maj David J King Jr -- Maj Gen Peter W Chiarelli -- Col Mark Volk -- Col Marcus A Kuiper -- Brig Gen Karl W Eikenberry -- Maj Gen John R Wood -- Lt Col Isabelle Slifer -- Col Philip A McNair -- Dalisay Olaes -- Martha Carden -- Dr Betty Maxfield -- Sgt Maj Tony Rose -- John D Yates -- Maj John Lewis Thurman -- Col Edwin Morehead -- Lt Col Adrian Erckenbrack -- Robert L Jaworski -- Arthur Santana -- Maj Craig Collier -- Maj Jeanette K Stone -- Assistant Fire Chief James H Schwartz -- 1st Lt Steven Cunningham -- Assistant Fire Chief James H Schwartz -- Col J Edgar Wakayama -- Arthur Santana -- Lt Col Tracy Bryant -- Assistant Fire Chief James H Schwartz -- Brenda Hirschi -- Maj Gen John R Wood -- Charlene Ryan -- Maj Craig Collier -- Sgt Maj Tony Rose -- Col Henry A Haynes -- Spec Lauren Panfili -- Assistant Fire Chief James H Schwartz -- Deputy Bob McFarland -- Thomas N Kuhn -- 1st Sgt Steven Stokes -- Capt William Besterman -- Capt Lance Green -- Steven E Beck and Michael E Shea -- David A Nanney -- Maj Willis T Leavitt -- Sandi Hanish -- Col Roy Wallace -- Col Marcus A Kuiper -- Col Joseph M Tedesco Jr -- Brenda Hirschi -- Leona G Shaw -- Maj Jeanette K Stone -- Sheila Moody -- Lt Col Isabelle Slifer -- Col Marcus A Kuiper -- Martha Carden -- Abbreviations -- Index.

- Tubes : a journey to the center of the Internet / by Blum, Andrew.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The map -- A network of networks -- Only connect -- The whole Internet -- Cities of light -- The longest tubes -- Where data sleeps -- Home.When your Internet cable leaves your living room, where does it go? Almost everything about our day-to-day lives--and the broader scheme of human culture--can be found on the Internet. But what is it physically? And where is it really? Our mental map of the network is as blank as the map of the ocean that Columbus carried on his first Atlantic voyage. The Internet, its material nuts and bolts, is an unexplored territory. Until now. In Tubes, journalist Andrew Blum goes inside the Internet's physical infrastructure and flips on the lights, revealing an utterly fresh look at the online world we think we know. It is a shockingly tactile realm of unmarked compounds, populated by a special caste of engineer who pieces together our networks by hand; where glass fibers pulse with light and creaky telegraph buildings, tortuously rewired, become communication hubs once again. From the room in Los Angeles where the Internet first flickered to life to the caverns beneath Manhattan where new fiber-optic cable is buried; from the coast of Portugal, where a ten-thousand-mile undersea cable just two thumbs wide connects Europe and Africa, to the wilds of the Pacific Northwest, where Google, Microsoft, and Facebook have built monumental data centers--Blum chronicles the dramatic story of the Internet's development, explains how it all works, and takes the first-ever in-depth look inside its hidden monuments. This is a book about real places on the map: their sounds and smells, their storied pasts, their physical details, and the people who live there. For all the talk of the "placelessness" of our digital age, the Internet is as fixed in real, physical spaces as the railroad or telephone. You can map it and touch it, and you can visit it. Is the Internet in fact "a series of tubes" as Ted Stevens, the late senator from Alaska, once famously described it? How can we know the Internet's possibilities if we don't know its parts? Like Tracy Kidder's classic The Soul of a New Machine or Tom Vanderbilt's recent bestseller Traffic, Tubes combines on-the-ground reporting and lucid explanation into an engaging, mind-bending narrative to help us understand the physical world that underlies our digital lives.
