Opinion | 'This city mourned together': How Post readers remember 9/11
xCruzo Brief
In letters published to mark the 25th anniversary of Sept. 11, readers describe personal memories of the attacks and reflect on how response and government programs have worked since then. One writer, Anthony V. Fasolo, said he was serving at the Pentagon when American Airlines Flight 77 hit on Sept. 11, 2001, and later dealt with lost records under the World Trade Center medical monitoring program, as well as long delays in the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. Fasolo and other contributors urged Congress to hold oversight hearings, protect medical records during contractor transitions, and require public reporting on compensation processing timelines. Another letter begins describing changes in how people view Sikhs after 9/11.
