Description To receive on-the-spot medical attention for my burn injuries, I went to the Visiting Unit of the Army Hospital, which had been established in a bamboo thicket. While resting there after being treated with medicine applied to my affected areas, large drops of black rain began falling with a splashing sound. I stayed there to take shelter until the rain let up.
