As one who does research regarding natural / man-made horrific disasters, I have to say that this incident ranks up there in the U.S. Top 10. So many of the victims were those who were actually trampled to death, rather than dying from burns/smoke inhalation. When panic set in, Patrolman McKeon and others tried in vain to assist with the exiting, in an orderly fashion. News reports stated that as many as 100 bodies were actually "unrecognizable fused-together molds."

Patrolman McKeon, may Your Soul Rest - In - Peace.
