Ingersoll Images
Reveal
Staged Light Pole & Cab
Scene Minutes After Attack
The Jason Ingersoll
photo collection is a
treasure trove of
information and they reveal
the sequence of events after
the attack surrounding the
staged light pole and cab
scene on Route 27.
The
images provide a close-up
look at the cab and light
pole scene better than any
other collection.
But here is a bit of a back
story regarding these images
first.
Jason
Ingersoll was a Navy
photographer who took some of the
most famous high resolution
photos of the Pentagon
attack that exist.
He was at the Navy Annex at
the time of the attack and
walked down to the scene
snapping shots along the
way.
We were lucky enough to
obtain the entire high full
resolution Ingersoll
collection on our first trip
to Arlington from Christopher
(Kit)
Landis at the VDOT (Virginia
Department of Transportation) who
was the Operations Manager for
Safety Service Patrol. He
was in charge of road
closures for road safety
issues and potentially
maintenance most notably of
the light poles. We
had specific questions for
him regarding prior
maintenance to the poles
that were downed on 9/11 but
he wasn't able to give us
specific answers. He
was notably nervous during
our questions.
The VDOT takes care of all
light pole maintenance as
well and you can see me
inspect the same style light
poles that were downed on
9/11 in their yard
here.
These images will give you a
perspective as to where the
VDOT is in relation to the
Pentagon and light poles
which is where Christopher
Landis worked and where I
inspected the poles.
Getting the entire Ingersoll
photo collection was a major
score because there were
some images we hadn't seen
online and they were all the
original super high
resolution versions in
order.
In an extremely strange and
suspicious twist that we can
only pray is a
coincidence, about a week
after we had obtained the CITGO witnesses testimony on
film, Christopher Landis
committed suicide.
The obituary was published
in the Washington post on
November 16th 2006.
So this happened about 2.5
months after we met him and
he gave us the images, and
about a week after I was
back there, had a
tour of the
VDOT
again,
and obtained the CITGO
station
witness interviews on camera.
Coincidence? We can only
hope so but he was a very
young man with 4 young
children (2 boys and 2
girls) and a great job.
We definitely thought he was
noticeably nervous when we
talked with him.
First I will post the
unaltered images from the
beginning until he reaches
Lloyd and his cab and I will
indicate the time of each
image and label them with
their original name.
The date on the images reads
9/11/2001 but the time on
the images indicates exactly
13 hours later than actual
time. Since the series
starts at 45 minutes past
the hour I believe that the
minutes are correct because
it seems feasible to suggest
he started taking pictures about
7 minutes after the "attack"
which was at about 38
minutes past the hour and
everything coincides right
down to his first image of
the collapsed roof taken at
21 minutes after the next
hour.
No matter how you look at it
the time gives you a good
reference for how many
minutes between each image.

completely blocked off and
therefore totally secured
and controlled. (red Suzuki is empty)
These
3 men were likely driving
the 3 government vehicles
that blocked off the scene.

please email us so we can
contact them for questioning.
