Samuel D. Danner, a pilot and electrical engineer from Hagerstown, Maryland, was eyewitness of the 9/11 incident at Pentagon.
Danner has described in detail seeing an aircraft that looked exactly like a Global Hawk make a tight turn at high speed and level off at ground level and smash into the Pentagon.
As a trained Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Sam left his vehicle on the side of the road (Virginia Route 27) and ran to the crash site to help the wounded. He was utterly baffled, however, to find no bodies, wounded or dead, and no airplane, Boeing 757 or otherwise. All he found was some smashed up sheet metal and a very small jet engine.
Sam has described the bizarre scene as something out of the Twilight Zone series, in which nothing made sense.
He recalled seeing a group of men by the Pentagon wearing white shirts and ties who all had binoculars with them. When he was looking at the crash site from the road with his binoculars, he saw them looking at him through theirs. He waved, he said, but they did not wave back.
When he got to the "crash" site, he was mystified when he did not see any luggage or parts of a 100-ton aircraft at all. All he found was a badly bent jet engine wheel that appeard to be about 3 feet in diameter.
It should be noted that this 3-foot wheel was found with its cowling, or housing, which was about the same size in diameter. There is very thick insulation seen in this housing material. This is not likely to be a small wheel from a large engine, rather it is more likely one of the front large turbine wheels from an engine that is about 3 feet in diameter.
This small jet engine appears to have hit the limestone clad Pentagon wall and bounced some 25 feet away from the building.
Later, Danner was ordered to help pick up very small pieces and fragments of a graphite or carbon-fiber composite material made of polymer or resin. He was part of a line of people who were ordered to walk across the lawn near the crash site and scour the lawn for every single piece of debris. The person who ordered him to do this was a man named "Erkstine," or perhaps "Eckstine."
Recently, Eric Hufschmid showed Sam the television footage from Fox News that shows the line of people picking up small pieces of the aircraft that hit the Pentagon. In this video Sam was able to pick himself out.
He identified the guy behind him as "that mysterious Erkstine," who he described as something like the "wicked witch of the East".
Sam was disturbed by this violation of basic crime scene protocol and asked the "mysterious Erkstine" why they were removing evidence from the crime scene and putting it into Hefty trashbags?
"Son," Erkstine told the 49-year old Danner, "just pick up the stuff."
Sam said he found small pieces of shredded aluminum and carbon-fiber material that was rough with protruding fibers on one side and smooth and polished on the other. The wings and tail of the Global Hawk are made out of this kind of carbon-fiber composite material. The fuselage is aluminum. The Global Hawk has a single jet engine about 3 feet in diameter.
Danner, who has been to many crash sites as an EMT, was puzzled by the fact that rather than securing the perimeter, preserving the evidence and putting down orange flags for the forensic specialists and accident investigators, he and the others were picking up evidence and treating it like trash.
Danner asked Erkstine why they were removing evidence from the crash site?
"Son," Erkstine said, "it's none of your damn business."
As Sam walked through the grass picking up the small fragments of what is said to be a Boeing 757, Erkstine was a few feet behind him making sure, like a Boy Scout leader, that every piece of debris was being picked up.
Today, I called the Pentagon and spoke with a rather rude spokesperson named Cheryl Irwin about Danner's report. I asked her who this "Erkstine" fellow was and why he was ordering people to remove the evidence from the scene of a crime. Irwin said she had never heard of any Erkstine at the Pentagon.
Irwin told me to contact the FBI. The FBI took control of the Pentagon crash site "almost immediately," Irwin said.
Irwin did not let me go, however, before she could ask me a few questions. So I explained what Danner had seen and explained that his detailed observations clearly disproved the official hypothesis that a Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon.
"Hypothesis?" Irwin said, "what hypothesis?"
I told her that there is no physical or photographic evidence to support the government hypothesis that a 757 hit the Pentagon.
Irwin said there is plenty of evidence to support this claim, so I asked her to provide one solid piece.
"Well, there were 187 bodies," she said.
"But 187 bodies does not prove that it was a Boeing 757," I said.
Then she said there were all kinds of airplane parts. When I told her about the 3-foot engine wheel and asked her to tell me of one piece of an aircraft from the Pentagon that could be proven to be part of a 757, she became rather nasty.
"Before I start calling you ugly names...," she threatened.
"Go right ahead," I said, "call me all the ugly names you want at taxpayers' expense."
She then decided to insult my newspaper, American Free Press, and hung up on me.
In the photo below, the red arrow points to Samuel D. Danner and the white arrow is "the mysterious Erkstine."
FBI agent Erkstine, or Erskin, or whoever you are:
May I remind you that every little bit of evidence from the Pentagon is every bit of our "damn business."
I intend to find out who you are and why you were ordering American citizens to remove crucial evidence from the scene of this horrendous crime.
Agent Erkstine, the history of 9/11 has clearly shown that the fundamental obstacle and primary handicap that has prevented us, as a nation, from knowing what really happened on 9/11 is the illegal suppression and confiscation of evidence by that utterly corrupt organization known as the FBI.
