dapixielat is correct. The bodies recovered were mostly from the Pentagon. Though parts where found in which some indentification can be made. Some things, like teeth are almost impossible to destroy by fire - even in cremations they take the teeth and grind them afterwards. Teeth are used the most to make indentifications, also if someone had things like pacemakers, steel joints, etc..

Aluminum will burn and melt. Humans are 70% water, hard to burn.
DNA is a great source to identify humans, its only takes a drop of your blood. Especially if relatives are available for comparison.
When a plane hits the ground, it breaks apart and everything inside is sent in a thousand different directions.

The plane did not vaporize and all of the bodies were not identifible. The bodies that were identified were the military personnel who were killed in the building.

What are you talking about? No bodies from the plane were recovered-- other than pieces/fragments.
What bodies were recovered were from people inside the pentagon.
