<< NEW YORK, Feb. 10 ? The remains of five Port Authority police officers, including a chief and the first female director of the agency?s training academy, were recovered at the World Trade Center site, a spokesman said Sunday.
THE FIVE ? Chief James Romito, Capt. Kathy Mazza, Lt. Robert Cirri and Officers James Parham and Stephen Huczko ? were among the 37 Port Authority police officers killed in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
The bodies were discovered together Saturday at the base of 1 World Trade Center, according to Port Authority spokesman Greg Trevor. All five had rushed from the Port Authority police headquarters and training academy in Jersey City, N.J., to help in the evacuation of the trade center.
?They were some of the finest people that I?ve ever worked with anywhere,? Trevor said. ?All five were highly regarded police officers. They helped countless people escape.?
30-YEAR VETERAN
Romito, of Westwood, N.J., was a 30-year veteran of the force, Trevor said. Mazza, of South Farmingdale, N.Y., was a former operating-room registered nurse who became the first female commander of the Port Authority police training academy.
Parham, of Jackson Heights, Queens, had been promoted to be an instructor at the training academy before the terrorist attack. Huczko, of Hampton, N.J., was a registered nurse and emergency medical technician who belonged to the Port Authority pipe and drum band. Cirri, of Nutley, N.J., worked at the academy.
The remains of 14 of the Port Authority police officers killed Sept. 11 have now been found, Trevor said. >>
