J'can firefighter can't shake Haiti's post-quake horrors

JamaicaObserver.com: "But the days he spent in Haiti will haunt him for a long time to come. In fact, he told the Sunday Observer yesterday that nothing could have prepared him for the devastation he witnessed when he and nine of his fellow firefighters landed in Port-au-Prince to assist in the rescue of those trapped under concrete rubble following the deadly January 12 earthquake.
He candidly admitted that the images that keep replaying themselves in his head were numerous, but said the one that moved him the most was that of a group of children who were crushed to death inside an infant school in the city.
'They all died with their hands stretched out when the building fell on their backs,' the new dad of seven months said, sadness in his voice."
