Victims Of The Murrah Building Bombing

On the second anniversary of the fire at the home of David Koresh's Branch Davidian followers, a bomb exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The date is also Patriots Day, observing the battle that began the American Revolution.
