My youngest brother was working as a culinary instructor in a partnership with The Port Authority that owned the Trade Center and the NY State Department of Special Education for mentally challenged adults.
He was working with these students, all of whom were at some level of mental incapacity but they were great workers and eager to learn all about banquet preparation. They and my brother worked at The Sky Box Cafe in the South Tower.
The woman who ran the training program was also the manager for the cafe and wanted my brother to manage the Cafe but he had a better paying gig uptown.
He wasn’t at the Trade Center on 9/11 but all his students and the manager were.
They were all killed.
Over the years my brother has had nightmares about that day.
He say’s “I see my students faces. They’re calling to me, crying for help and I can’t help them’’.
Deepest sympathy for their families- and to your brother as well :-(
What an utter horror:-(
