9/11 FDNY Chief Orio Palmer: "Two Isolated Pockets of Fire" On 78th Floor of South Tower

FDNY Radio Channel 30 (September 11th, 2001 - 9:52 a.m.)

FDNY Battalion 7 Deputy Chief Orio Palmer says there are two isolated pockets of fire that can be knocked out with two lines on the 78th floor of the South Tower just moments before its collapse on September 11th, 2001.

"On the tape, which recorded transmissions as they were passed through the repeater, firefighters in the south tower can be heard speaking over their radios until the building collapses. Practically no communications are recorded from firefighters in the north tower, even though the same repeater served both of the towers...The tape is likely to be remembered as far more than a record of what went wrong. It contains the only permanently preserved voices of firefighters from the tower stairwells, including transmissions from the fire chief who climbed highest into the building. As the firefighters raced up the stairs of the south tower, and right until the final seconds, they can be heard calmly organizing help for injured civilians as high as the 78th floor...Chief Palmer took an elevator to the 40th or 41st floor, and then climbed on foot to the 78th floor within 30 minutes. As he ascended, he radioed reports on the conditions to the chief in the lobby and to other firefighters in the stairwells."

"Two hose lines are needed, Chief Orio Palmer says from an upper floor of the badly damaged south tower at the World Trade Center. Just two hose lines to attack two isolated pockets of fire...The 78-minute tape, which was found in a room at 5 World Trade Center where radio transmissions were monitored, is the only known audiotape of firefighters at the scene. In recent months, officials of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which maintained the recording system, have allowed fire officials and family members to listen to it. It was not publicly released, however, until this week."

"In August of 2002, excerpts from Chief Palmer and others were released. In early November of 2002, the entire tape was released to the New York Times, then to other unspecified 'news outlets'...Palmer called for a pair of engine companies to fight the fires. The fact that veteran firefighters showed no sign of fear or panic, and had a coherent plan for fighting the fire, contradicts the official explanation of the collapses that the fires were so hot and extensive that they weakened the steel structure."
