Men with rifles stopped FDNY Captain Rich Patterson entering WTC7

This is FDNY Captain Richard Patterson (Ret.) trying to help spread awareness at the 20th anniversary of September 11th, 2001.

Captain Patterson almost died while searching for survivors in NYC on 9/11. Now he is helping us to blow the whistle on what really happened that day.

Captain Patterson was off-duty in uptown NYC on 9/11, but made his way down to the World Trade Center by hitching a ride in an ambulance. He was later carrying out duties just outside the North Tower when he was knocked back by explosions. He survived, but lost 41 firefighters that morning—brothers who he knew personally. He saw the jumpers from the towers, and he picked up body parts from the aftermath of the explosive destruction.

In the late morning, not long after the North Tower came down, he was told by a "worker" walking away from WTC7, that Building-7 would be coming down at about 5 o'clock. Captain Patterson acknowledged that it was curious how the "worker" could know this with such certainty.

When on duty, firefighters have a legal right of entry into buildings to investigate and fight fires. Yet on 9/11, Captain Patterson and the FDNY Chief that he was with, were both denied entry into WTC7 by two men with rifles, wearing paramilitary uniforms with no visible agency designations.

Listen to Captain Patterson's account of these two strange occurences in this 1-minute recording, and he repeats a similar account with an additional account of the "worker", in the following 2-minute recording.
