New York City Fire Department Releases Additional Records from Sept. 11, 2001

Includes oral histories and radio communications

The New York City Fire Department earlier this month released additional records of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attack.

"Pursuant to a ruling issued by the New York State Court of Appeals on March 24, 2005," said an FDNY release, "the Fire Department today is releasing additional records related to the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. In accordance with this ruling, these materials are being released with appropriate redactions provided for under the court's decision. Prior to the court's ruling, the Fire Department voluntarily provided numerous materials related to the attacks. The Department believes that the materials being released today -- including oral histories and radio communications -- will serve to further confirm the bravery and courage of our members who responded to the World Trade Center. It is the Department's hope that the release of these records will not cause our members and their families any additional pain or anguish."
