I have been to the memorial a couple times when I was at OKC teaching at Tinker AFB. It is a very moving place. They did a nice job with it.

I attended an explosives training class in New Mexico put on by the Department of Homeland Security (Center for Domestic Preparedness) a couple years ago. One of the instructors was the (retired) head of the bomb squad for OKlahoma City PD when the event occurred. His recollections ranged from depressing to inspiring, and brought that tragic day to life.
