SCOTS RESCUERS TELL OF QUAKE HORROR

SCOTS firefighters who went to the scene of the Turkey quake disaster told how a man hugged them after they recovered the body of his wife.

Watch commander John Aitchison, crew chief Steven Adams and firefighters Tony Armstrong and Keith Gauld also spoke of the "utter carnage and biblical scenes we'll never forget".

They joined the 77-strong UK rescue team sent to the country after huge tremors left buildings collapsed and 47,000 dead.

On their return home, they told of the destruction they witnessed during the 10-day search for survivors.
