The bombing of Oklahoma City took dozens of innocent lives, including one year -old girl who was filmed in the arms of a brave firefighter.
The moment the photo was taken, the firefighter had no idea that it would become one of the most famous pictures of the 1995 bombing – he was only thinking about the girl's family.

In light of the next thirtieth anniversary of the bombing of Oklahoma City, a new documentary comes to Netflix.
He will tell us the championship of those who did not escape but tried to help others – the firefighter Chris Fields was one of these people.
Fields and his crew felt the explosion when a bomb exploded in front of the Alfred B. Mora Federal in the center of Oklahoma City on the morning of April 19, 1995.
Fields, who was only 10 years away in his career, rushed to the Oclahoma City extinguishing administration at the time, to help the bombing victims.
This is when he told Fields police that he had found a decisive child.
The fields took the child, who was covered with blood, and carried them in his arms.
“I am EMT, so I just verified the signs of life, I did not find anything,” Fields said today in March 2017.
He continued: “But I wanted to move it to the ambulance and allow the paramedics to know whether there is anything they can do.”
The name of the child was baylee almon. One year turned on the day before the bombing.
“I was thinking, this is a person of someone who is just preparing to retreat completely,” Fieldz recalls the moment when the haunting photo of Payly was taken.
He added: “Knowing that they will discover that their child has died.”
Bailey was one of 19 children and 168 people, who were killed in the most local terrorist attack in the history of the United States.
Hundreds of others were injured on spring day in 1995 – the day that led to the chase of the nation, including fields.
“It is always destructive when it includes children, but when you have one, he strikes home more than that,” said Fields, who was his first two -year -old son at the time of the bombing.
What was the bombing of the city of Oklahoma?
On the morning of April 19, 1995, a bomb exploded outside the Alfred B. Federal Mora in the center of Oklahoma.
The bomb killed 168 people, including 19 children, and injured hundreds of others.
Timothy McVy, the former soldier of the goalkeeper and the security guard, was responsible for the bombing.
He had extremist ideologies and was angry at the siege of the FBI in the Davidan Religious Group Complex near Waku, Texas, two years ago.
McWeight was charged with his crimes on August 10, 1995, was convicted on June 2, 1997 and was sentenced to death on August 14, 1997.
He was executed by deadly injections on June 11, 2001.
Frozen moment in time
The fields did not think anything about him and Bayli at first.
But this image ended on the front pages of newspapers all over the world and continued to win the Politzer Award, which is a prize for the distinguished press.
The fields did not want the fame related to the picture and were concerned about what Umm Baile had passed because of it.
“I have been struggled for a long time from feeling responsible for it,” he said.
Another inhabited thought: “I was the last to carry a child's child when that was the parents’ deal. “
But Aarin Alaon Cook, who was 23 years old and a single mother when her child was killed, was grateful to the fields.
“She said, I can say by looking at the image that you are my father the way I was carrying Bailey,” Fields remembers when he met the sad mother.

Where is Chris Fields today?
Fields is now a Baylee mother who is in a good place mentally after years of dealing with the bombing through consulting.
“Post -shock disorder is a real thing,” Fields said he realized after the attack.
He added: “Twenty or 30 years ago, emotion did not appear, and you continued your day … We have reached a large extent since then.”
Fields retired in March 2017 after serving the people of Oklahoma City for more than 30 years.
Fields told Associated Press in a new interview that the attack by a radical political ideology could happen again.
“Don't worry about it, but do I think it can happen again?”

McVeigh had extremist ideologies and was angry at the siege of the FBI on the Davidian Religious Group Complex near Waco, Texas, two years ago, killing dozens of people.
Oklahoma City bomber was executed by fatal injection in 2001.
