From Philadelphia Online: A former police officer who retired from the FBI due to
post-traumatic stress disorder linked to her role in the aftermath of
the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks has written a book about seeing legions
of angels guarding the Pennsylvania site where a hijacked airliner
crashed.
Lillie Leonardi served as a liaison between law enforcement and the
families of the passengers and crew members killed in the United
Airlines Flight 93 crash. She arrived on the scene about three hours
after the crash.
Although Leonardi's book, In the Shadow of a Badge: A Spiritual Memoir, centers on her vision of angels, she argues her life has been changed more by what she didn't see that day.
"The biggest thing for me is that that there were no bodies," she said.
Leonardi, 56, remembers the burning pine and jet fuel stinging her
nostrils. She said she also remembers a smoldering crater littered with
debris too small to associate with the jetliner or 40 passengers and
crew on board.
"I'm used to crime scenes but this one blew me out of the water. It
just looked like the ground had swallowed up" the plane, Leonardi said.
"That's when I started seeing like shimmery lights . . . and it was kind
of misty, and that's when I first saw, like, the angels there,"
Leonardi said. "And I didn't say anything to the guys because you can
imagine if I would have said, 'I just saw angels on the crash site,'
they'd have called the office and they'd have said, 'She lost her mind'
and 'tell her to go home.' "

I'm believer in Angels, especially guardian angels, but a skeptic when people makes claims about Angels, UFO's and ghosts. In this case, I would not be surprised if an Angel or two showed up. It is certainty an interesting claim.
