    2. From the Daily Journal newspaper of Franklin, Johnson County, Indiana ''OFFICER FROM INDIANA An Army officer from Indiana was "at ground zero" when an aircraft that was hijacked by terrorists slammed into the Pentagon, his son said. Lt. Col. Canfield Boone was among 189 people on a list of those still unaccounted for that was released Friday by the Defense Department. Boone, 53, was in his office on the second floor of the Pentagon's E-ring, "right exactly where the plane hit" Tuesday morning, his son Andy Boone said in a telephone interview from the family home in Fairfax, Va. "He was at ground zero when the plane hit," 21-year-old Andy Boone said. Defense officials told family members at a briefing Thursday that they should not expect any more survivors from the Pentagon crash, he said. Canfield Boone grew up in Milan, and later moved to Indianapolis, where he attended Butler University and met his wife, Linda." Submitted by Ivan D. Lancaster of Trafalgar, Indiana
