alive ing from New York. Mr Baez said recent U. S bombing raids had delayed her departure from Hanoi for a week. After a warm greeting by family and friends in San Francisco, she outlined some of the bomb damage described by one of her colleagues as far

00:00:30.720 - 00:00:45.590

heavier than the London blitz of World War 24 to this underground hospital was the only place where you could really function of the hospital. Apparently there were 200 people a day being serviced. Um, you know, who were very badly wounded, which they assumed that means 200

00:00:45.600 - 00:01:19.170

killed because it's about average 50 50 or else more die than a wounded so that while I was there for 11 days, there were about 2000 people just from Hanoi proper, who were killed? Well, I was scared stiff, you know, and you begin to understand certain

00:01:19.170 - 00:01:33.260

things about about what it's like being under bombardment for the last 25 years, or whatever it's been. People go on functioning day after day after day, that probably one of the biggest mistakes of people who've never been in that kind of situation. To think that any

00:01:33.270 - 00:01:46.140

kind of that bombing is going to stop. Anybody's will you've been widely quoted in your group has is saying there's been a number of civilian casualties and bombardments and hospitals and so forth. Can you tell us about your personal knowledge of that? Yeah. The three worst

00:01:46.140 - 00:02:03.420

places that I saw bomb were the hospital of a bomb. A hospital, Um, which bomb? No, darling, keep looking, which is three nights in a row of carpet bombing of the hospital so that when I was taken to it, there's nothing, I mean, nothing but leveled

00:02:03.420 - 00:02:15.850

in the and it's really sort of strangely tragic scene of the director of the hospital showing us his hospital. But instead of saying and this is the dermatology and this is maternity, and this was and this was and this was and there were some corpses, it's

00:02:15.850 - 00:02:28.700

very front, which they always cover. When they when people come by, you know, any of us out of like, a consideration or something on then, um, 20 people trapped in a shelter in the home they never did get out. They couldn't get out on. So I

00:02:28.700 - 00:02:41.570

mean, if the question is one of which seems to be a great skepticism on the part of many Americans. Will is this. It's done on purpose. You know, we're these mistake's. Who were these done purposely did. Pentagon has to decide which position is going to take,

00:02:41.570 - 00:02:56.480

whether they're going to brag about being able to bomb a dime or whether they're going to deny having obliterated a hospital and airport and sections of town, which which there is nothing absolutely nothing but residential section of little tiny houses close together and and thousands of

00:02:56.490 - 00:02:57.460

people wiped out.
