    "It bounced. One bomb dropped in the yard and didn't explode. Guys put it on this couch and went back again. I don't know what happened to the bomb after.

But there were people hit, dead sadly - the soldiers who had served [at the factory]."

So we stayed, but whoever could ran away. It was just a moment. Jus a moment later, there was a long siren tone, and that meant the planes were already over us. Indeed they were, in formation... I can see it like it was yesterday..."
