June Legg: I was at nurse in [?] hospital.
-
Not Synced
We were all asked if we would like
to help out,
-
Not Synced
and my children were the same age
-
Not Synced
as the ones that were...
-
Not Synced
were trapped,
-
Not Synced
in the school.
-
Not Synced
And I didn't know if I could do it.
-
Not Synced
I wanted to help, but I -- I
-
Not Synced
just couldn't.
-
Not Synced
And the nurse said, well, she said,
-
Not Synced
"Think that at least
the mothers will know
-
Not Synced
that you're doing...
-
Not Synced
[whispers]
you'll be doing it for them.
-
Not Synced
For the children, as well."
-
Not Synced
And, uh...
-
Not Synced
I realized, after, yes.
-
Not Synced
But, I -- I'm glad
that she said that,
-
Not Synced
because I had thought
-
Not Synced
that I would just break down,
-
Not Synced
but, uh...
-
Not Synced
we went over to Aberfan.
-
Not Synced
We were all posted up on the tip.
-
Not Synced
And we were told,
when the Klaxon horn went,
-
Not Synced
to move.
-
Not Synced
And we were there,
we had a few minor injuries.
-
Not Synced
And then, the Klaxon horn went.
-
Not Synced
And we went down to
an old chapel,
-
Not Synced
by the river,
-
Not Synced
and we were all getting ready
to help out there,
-
Not Synced
and we had the cover to move,
-
Not Synced
because the river was flooding in.
-
Not Synced
So, off we went again,
-
Not Synced
and, somehow,
I got lost from all the rest,
-
Not Synced
and eventually, I found them.
-
Not Synced
They were all being taken
-
Not Synced
in the ambulance,
for exposure.
-
Not Synced
because they only had
their uniforms on.
