They were screaming with pain, but Cahill had no pain medication.
Some of the victims' uniforms, made of synthetic materials, had melted, not burned. Cahill cut off the clothing and doused the victims with saline solution. He asked stunned onlookers to help him get a dozen burn victims to a nearby lawn, while secondary explosions boomed from the crash scene, about 100 yards away.
Thank you, Luis.
