I will never forget seeing my father grab his donkey-jacket and shovel to go help dig for these children. I was their age exactly. He didn't come home for 2 weeks, and when he did, he could not speak for days. He was utterly broken. The things he saw were horrific. We who were there will never forget Aberfan. 😢 😢
@homebird I saw the episode of this on the Crown and I believe a Welsh series covered it as well. Bless your father for that work, what a terrible event and such trauma.
