Break out See Also

rewrite suggestions
the first line reads "The area surrounding the World Trade Center became the site of the greatest number of casualties and missing..."

compared to what?

I changed it to "The area surrounding the World Trade Center became the site of the greatest number of casualties and missing, due to a single incident, in the history of the United States" Is that better? The WTC casualties outnumber the Pearl Harbor attack casualties - see Attack on Pearl Harbor Roger (talk) 07:04, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Communications
There's a lot in the article about the emergency service's communication systems failing but absolutely no mention of the hundreds of volunteer Amateur Radio operators who stepped in and provided a system that worked very well. Someone with better writing skills than me please add to this article. Here are 2 very good sources - http://hometown.aol.com/realhamradio/ this is a first person account of the ham who controlled the communications at "ground zero" and this http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/WTC.pdf is an article published by the American Radio Relay League.

Requested move 29 March 2015

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: To be moved to Rescue and recovery effort after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center per suggestion. It's a very unwieldy looking title, but there seems to be a consensus, and no obvious shorter forms leap out. Note: the page is move requested, so I will request the move at WP:RM/TR. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 12:35, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Rescue and recovery effort after the September 11 attacks → New York City rescue and recovery effort after the September 11 attacks – The article is completely about the events undertaken in New York City. I read the title and assumed otherwise, but it is basically just about ground zero activities and the World Trade Centers, not the other locations. I would have normally moved this on my own, but it appears to be locked by an administrator for unknown and unlogged reasons because I checked the log. I like to saw logs!

 * Suggest Rescue and recovery effort after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center. Small point but some of the rescuers/ recovery effort makers will have come from / been based elsewhere.  GregKaye 11:52, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Agrees with Suggestion to move it to Rescue and recovery effort after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center. New York can be a bit vague, and the attack was confined to the buildings. I like to saw logs! (talk) 04:06, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
