This pocket bible was carried by Chap. (Col.) Eric Wester during the September 11 attack. His name, and the names of his colleagues, are listed on the end pages as the chaplains tried to get accountability of their personnel throughout the day. Chaplain Wester was attending a conference at the Pentagon when American Airlines Flight 77 struck the building.
