We were in our noisy, rescue helicopter because an emergency call had come in. A number of boats with children on them had been swept inland, they had then tumbled down a steep hill into a forest area.
When we were close by, I noticed people walking around. I told the pilot. After that, he landed the helicopter safely close by, all the crew leaped out onto the damp ground, and swiftly walked over to the suffering people.
We gave the dehydrated and ravenous people some food and water. After that, we brought the very ill people to hospital by helicopter and rescue boats were on their way to bring the rest of the people onto dry land.
