Alton Semling lived on a farm about two miles away. He remembers the storm, and then seeing lots of cars zooming by, so he drove over to see what was happening and found himself put to work.
"When you're 19, you're eager to get a look," he said.
The rescuers had formed a chain, passing stretchers up the hillside. A neighboring farmer had a Dodge Power Wagon with a winch they used to pull some of the wreckage apart. Semling remembers helping move one piece.
