Prohibition o f Inclusion of Rank Designation for Uniformed Personnel on the 9/11 Memorial
The ranks of uniformed personnel, including firefighters and military personnel, will NOT be included with their names on the memorial. The victims’ names will be placed around two waterfalls which outline the location of the twin towers. but will not include their rank. For example, Peter Ganci will not have “Chief of Department” placed under his name. Ray Downey will not have Deputy Chief next to his name. The only reason given for this was to avoid having a “hierarchy of death” on the memorial.
尽管统一服务的成员抗议,但忽略了将行列置于纪念馆上的要求。平民团体领导人的来信supporting the placement of ranks on the memorialhas been ignored as well.
当前的计划是将近10,000名身份不明的人遗体放在付费录取博物馆内的“纪念墙”后面,同时在该墙上显示一个指示遗体位置的标志。这将是博物馆的“程序化元素”。根据国际协议和博物馆专业人士的说法,将人类遗体放在博物馆中是不道德的,不合适的,而无需与所有受影响个人的咨询并获得同意,在这种情况下,在这种情况下,这些家属在世界贸易中心失去的家人9号。/11。
Today, this vision has become distorted. Most family members are aghast to learn that these remains will be located 70 feet below ground, inside the paid admission museum. This fact has been largely undisclosed to the families. This cloak of secrecy has ensured that the victims’ families will have no opportunity for consultation. Many families find this deeply offensive and troubling.
Victim 刻画与恐怖分子的刻画
就目前而言,9/11受害者的照片(包括在五角大楼和在Shanksville中丢失的受害者的照片宾夕法尼亚州)将被放置在博物馆内的“纪念展”中。这些小照片将放在走廊高达12英尺高的墙壁上!这条“面孔河”使受害者脱离了个人,将他们全部塞进一个巨大的马赛克。不可能阅读受害者的名字并看到照片放置在地板上方。为了增加对伤害的侮辱,如果游客想了解有关特定受害者的任何信息,他们将不得不在三个相邻的计算机亭之一中查找近3,000名受害者!在此处查看受害者照片的“牛走廊”(请注意图像中很少显示访问者):http://newmuseumme.national911memorial.org/
Contrast the victim portrayal with those of the terrorists. The terrorists will be provided with their own corridor, with their Federal Bureau of Investigation photographs placed at human height (not 12 feet off the floor!) along with printed martyrdom quotes and the like. Artifacts, including a visa of one of the terrorists, will be placed with the photos. Read this Reuters article from last September:http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE58979Z20090911
No one is objecting to naming the terrorists in the museum, but it should not be done at the expense of the victims. The victim photographs should be placed at human height, be spread out over a much larger area, and have a printed biographical account without having to use a computer. Visitors should not be made to work and fight to see and learn about the victims. The names of the terrorists should be mentioned in the portion of the museum dedicated to the 9/11 investigation. This is supposed to be a MEMORIAL museum. The terrorists should not be memorialized while the victims are trivialized
一个美国国旗
令人难以置信的是,目前的计划是在对美国土地上最严重的袭击地点拥有一个孤独的美国国旗。在这里看到它http://www.national911memorial.org/site/PhotoAlbumUser?view=UserPhotoDetail&PhotoID=198798&position=21&AlbumID=14633
Why aren’t there more American flags on this sacred ground? There should be as many flags as there are trees!
