O ES

IN THE

HEARTLAND

By Henry Hurt

It has been 25 years since a truck

bomb ripped through a federal

office building in Oklahoma City.

The tales of courage and survival

amid the horror that day are as

searing and inspiring as ever.

A firefighter’s valiant effort to save a

young life (left) symbolized the day.

The artifacts shown here are now

stored at the Oklahoma City National

Memorial and Museum.
