Rick Rescorla
| Quote: | As the director of security for the financial services firm Morgan Stanley at the World Trade Center, Rescorla anticipated attacks on the towers and implemented evacuation procedures that were credited with saving thousands of lives. He died during the attacks of September 11, 2001, going back to help evacuate more people in the South Tower after he had organized the evacuation of the Morgan Stanley offices. |
He was also over in Cyprus at the same time as my dad. I doubt they would have met as my dad was in Royal Signals - ironic seeing as he left school barely literate but I digress...
Anyhoo, if you've not read the tale before head over to the wikipedia link. Quite a life!
