If any of the perpetrators had got caught by their colleagues planning the attack or staging evidence, they could say they were just setting up for the drill. Plane debris could have been planted in the (mostly vacant) area of the Pentagon in advance. If anyone inquired, they would be told it was for the drill. Even fake "eyewitnesses" could be put in place in advance, ready to speak to the press, perhaps under the pretext that they would be acting the parts of bystanders for the drill. And so on. Also worth noting is that, aside from the exercises in October 2000 and May 2001, there was another plane-into-Pentagon exercise held in August 2001. It is unclear exactly which agencies were involved in this. Here's the relevant entry from the Complete 9/11 Timeline: Early August 2001: Mass Casualty Exercise at the Pentagon Includes a Plane Hitting the Building A mass casualty exercise, involving a practice evacuation, is held at the Pentagon. General Lance Lord of US Air Force Space Command, one of the participants in the exercises, later recalls: “[It was] purely a coincidence, the scenario for that exercise included a plane hitting the building.” Lord will also say that on 9/11, “our assembly points were fresh in our minds” thanks to this practice.
