The production called me first, just before midnight to tell me the news. Alain (Bernard) called me shortly after, he was obviously in tears, traumatized by what he had seen. He said he had seen the fire, and he understood that it was dramatic. It was part of another team, he was on the ground and waited for the next rotation.
