Could you ask the lady to tell me all about the events
on January the 31st, 1967 – what happened
to her and to her family and to the rest of the village, and to be as
full and as honest as she can.

Can you describe what happened in village on 31 January? What happened to you?
Nguyen Thi Nhi:
I can’t understand you.
Translator:
How were you injured on 31
January? What happened when the Americans arrived? Was your
home destroyed on 31 January?
Nguyen Thi Nhi:
Is that the entire question? Everyone suffered the
same.
Interviewer:
Let’s stop. Just stop a minute.
Translator:
What happened that day? Did they shoot you? Did your
house get burned down?

Please tell us from the beginning.

First of all, they arrived and burned everything. When
I saw them, I was sitting. Then I was shot and shot, and I fell down.
After that I did not know what else had happened.
