TWA Flight 800
1996
Smith Point, Shirley, New York

A 747 bound for Paris blew apart twelve minutes after leaving JFK and fell into the sea off this shore, killing all two hundred and thirty aboard, in front of hundreds of witnesses on the beach. A four-year investigation reassembled the aircraft in a hangar and found a fuel-tank explosion, not the missile so many had watched. A memorial of black granite stands at the county park.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
