Sympathy

I embraced one [wounded] soldier, trying to comfort him, “Please, please calm down. The doctors will help you when we get to the hospital. I am from Chongqing. I know we are from the same hometown. If you die, I will make sure that your family knows what happened to you.”

—Luo Ziyong, a Jiuguohui Woman, born in 1919 in Chongqing, Sichuan Province

我抱着一个战士，想安慰他，我说：“求求你，请冷静一下，到了医院医生一定会帮你的。我从重庆来，我知道你和我是老乡。如果你有什么三长两短，我一定保证让你家人知道你发生了什么。”
