The personnel included President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of State Colin Powell and CIA Director George Tenet.

Following a Freedom of Information Act request, the National Archives released a gallery of hundreds of new photos from those first hours after the 9/11 attacks.

The full album is available on the U.S. National Archives Flickr account.
