The Oklahoma Standard
by Frank Keating, Governor of Oklahoma, 1995-2003
On April 19, 1995, America suffered its worst domestic terrorist attack in our history. An angry young man, and embarrassingly a veteran, detonated a fuel oil and fertilizer bomb in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City. The explosion damaged or destroyed 302 buildings. 168 of our neighbors and friends were killed. Including 19 children. Hundreds were injured.
Chaos reigned. Agony was omnipresent. Fear. Confusion. Pain. The community was in shock. How do we get through this?
My college schoolmate, then president Bill Clinton, sent FEMA urban search and rescue teams to help us. Everyone pitched in.
The focused efforts were led by Oklahomans. A highly gifted mayor. A truly professional Oklahoma National Guard Commander, a first rate Police Chief and a first rate Fire Chief led their teams into the maelstrom. Health care members, hospitals at the site, performed with excellence and professionalism.
