Spread the love

On the scene: One of the images released by the FBI shows its agents alongside firefighters as flames still burns on the Pentagon grounds 
Damping down: This was the place where the hijacked plane crashed low into the Pentagon, creating a fire which swept through large parts of the complex

Ablaze: This image captured the scene around the Pentagon while the fire was still being tackled by hundreds of firefighters

Evidence: Among the pictures published by the FBI are images of debris showing clearly components of the American Airlines Boeing 757 which was hijacked by five al Qaeda terrorists

Examination: The FBI deployed forensic specialists to go through the aftermath of the Pentagon attacks. Their identities were obscured in the released photographs

Grim task: Sniffer dogs were employed by search and rescue workers in the hope of finding trapped survivors. Tragically there were none

View from inside: One photograph was taken from inside the ash-filled building looking out at the recovery effort outside at night

More plane debris: Forensics officers cordoned off the area around where part of what appears to be the plane's fuselage in American Airlines colors was left on the lawn outside the Pentagon 

Clear evidence: The 'c' of American Airlines is clear in this piece of the plane's fuselage found on the ground in the images from the Pentagon

Burned out: A very normal office building filled with filing cabinets was reduced to twisted metal and ashes, with only the cabinets themselves left standing

Clean-up: FBI agents and other workers had to deal with the standing water left by the effort to douse the flames from the explosion

Part of the destruction: The attack left smaller holes in the side of the building. It is unclear if they were caused by explosions or by heat

Evidence of the scale: This picture, clearly taken some days after the attack, shows how the fire had spread from the outer ring of the Pentagon which was breached by the plane, further into the complex

Inside the rings: This image shows the aftermath of the attacks inside one of the inter-locked rings of the Pentagon 

Remains: What appear to have been photocopiers were reduced to charried piles of metal and plastic with only their shapes giving some sense of what they were

Debris spilled out: The first which swept through part of the Pentagon left huge amounts of debris on the ground

Search under way: With the fire extinguished, FBI agents and firefighters conduct a fingertip search of the ruins

Aftermath: Inside the Pentagon's rings, the scale of burned-out rubble left behind is clear - and the efforts to tackle the blaze, with extinguishers left standing after being deployed.

Inside the chaos: A photograph apparently taken from inside the Pentagon looking out shows heavy-lifting equipment operating at night after the fire was extinguished

On the day: This was the scene as first responders and military personnel from inside the Pentagon rushed to help in the aftermath of the hijacking attack

Extinguishing the flames: The effort by firefighters to bring the fire under control was captured on the morning of the attack

Well ablaze: This was the scene in the hours immediately after the attack as smoke billowed over the DoD headquarters
