Where were you on April 19, 1995 at 9:02 AM?

I was in college. I remember returning from class around lunch time, seeing the live broadcast, and thinking, "Why Oklahoma City?!?" Memory of this day remains vivid, so I was eager to visit the museum...

The Survivor's Wall is the only remenant of the original building that still stands. On it are inscribed the names of more than 600 people who survived the attack.

Although badly damaged, this elm tree survived the attack. The force of the blast ripped most of the brances off, and embedded the tree with debris. Because of it's resilience, this tree has become an emblem for the memorial. 

The field of empty chairs: represents each of the 168 victims

This is the story of Daina Bradley, who lost her 2 babies and her mother while visiting the Social Security office on April 19. 1995. Daina's leg had to be amputated at the scene, using only the tools in the photo, to free her.
