Description
Ray Ragusa worked at Fresh Kills for 18 years as a heavy equipment operator. He describes the work ethic and skill of the workers at the Recovery Effort. Ray says it always popped into his mind that he was sifting through the remains of the WTC, but still it seemed unreal because there were hardly any objects to be found.
