Out of nearly 22,000 human remains found in the aftermath of 9/11, a majority of which did not include intact bodies or torsos. Authorities have been working to identity the remains, some as small as a finger tip, primarily through DNA testing.
2,753 people died at the hands of murderous muslim terrorists. The remains of a man killed during the Sept. 11 terror attack in New York have been identified 17 years later.
The New York medical examiners' office on Wednesday identified the victim as Scott Michael Johnson, 26, who worked at an investment banking company at the World Trade Center.
Johnson is the 1,642 person to be officially identified in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks that left nearly 3,000 people dead. He was identified after his DNA was re-tested using a new and improved technique, Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Sampson said in a statement.
"In 2001, we made a commitment to the families of victims that we would do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, to identify their loved ones," Sampson said. "This identification is the result of the tireless dedication of our staff to this ongoing mission." Most of the remains are hard to identify because of the effects of heat and chemicals from the jet fuel. The new DNA system helps with testing of degraded samples.

We shall never EVER forget.
