Observation

Commission senior counsel stated that NORAD's (and some FAA) accounts were not true.

Interpretation

High-value process evidence. False after-action stories occur for many reasons including institutional self-defence.

Source text

OBSERVATION: A principal Commission lawyer publicly described official air-defence stories as untrue relative to the tapes.

This is unusual process language from inside the enquiry. It supports taking NORAD's first story as unreliable without automatically proving a stand-down.
