Plot Synopsis

Encore presentation of ORAL HISTORY episodes that focused on 9/11, including interviews with people who were at the White House, U.S. Capitol, and the Pentagon on that historic day. Interviews with: Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, who was among the congressional leaders evacuated by helicopter to a secure undisclosed location on September 11, 2001; John Jester, the chief of the Defense Protective Service, who was in his Pentagon office that morning as he heard a low rumble as a commercial plane tore through the building; Mary Matalin, a top aide to Vice President Dick Cheney, was with him when the Secret Service physically removed him from the White House offices to a secure bunker; and Mary Beth Cahill, Senator Edward Kennedy's chief of staff, recalled that First Lady Laura Bush arrived on Capitol Hill early the morning of the terrorist attacks to testify before Congress.
