Boston airport apologizes for fire training exercise on 9/11
Officials from the Massachusetts Port Authority issued an apology Wednesday after conducting a fire training exercise at Boston Logan International Airport on the 12th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
"The fire department will be training this morning. Smoke on the airfield is part of the training," the airport's Twitter account announced.
In response to negative reactions on social media sites, the port authority, which operates the airport, said in a statement, "Massport apologizes for conducting the fire training exercise and understands that it may have offended many of those touched by the events of Sept. 11."
"It's just dumb," Gov. Deval Patrick said. "The timing could not be worse."

I am @ hamsta, and today makes me dislike GWB intensely!
Every year, we have read a story like this; some town somewhere does this.
It's wasn't done purposely, and those who might suffer from PTSD, like many of our brave first responders, will understand.
And im not offended by this fire drill in the least. Life does go on and im just glad they are trying to keep people safe.
Thank you T N H I didn't think so.
nooooooo! to be offended because the airport decided to practice its safety measures is a bit of a stretch...the fire alarms at my job were tested today...normal activity for any public facility...
They were doing what they're paid do. To bad if this didn't set well with the touchy, feelie whinners!!!
Oh shaddup @ JF! Have you ever lost anyone you've been closed too? Careing about someone you're close to and they pass away does NOT make you a whiner!
No, chrissy, it doesn't make you a whiner; but it does give those who lack empathy unless its their pet cause something to whine about. Oh, the irony.
