NEW YORK, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- Some families of the Sept. 11, 2001, victims want a specially trained military unit to hunt for human remains at the site of New York's World Trade Center.
The families believe the job of finding all the victims will remain incomplete unless the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command is employed by the city, Newsday reports.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg has refused to call in the joint command because he says the medical examiner's office has the expertise to get the job done.
Recently the city announced it was expanding the underground search area around the World Trade Center site and hiring additional forensic anthropologists to sift through materials.
"I'm so dissatisfied with the mayor," says Leanne Shay of Staten Island who lost her brother in the terror attacks. "He's a nice man, but if it were his daughter, he would have done things differently."
Shay was among a group of relatives of Sept. 11 victims who attended a midday rally to press Bloomberg to call in the military.
