People who knew Dr. Norman Bethune talk in Chinese about Bethune. A translator gives their responses in English. Ted Allan asks them questions as part of the research he is doing for a new book. Subjects covered include: Bethune's selflessness; his teaching people first aid; Bethune's refusal to eat better food than the soldiers and other people; Bethune's giving training at a medical school in 1939; his treatment of wounded soldiers; his giving medical treatment to soldiers and civilians; and his inspection of the medical facilities operated by the Chinese. Among the speakers identified on the tape is Dli Ylang, Chang Chen Hsiu, age 78, who worked as Bethune's cook, Ho Tchich Yuan, age 63, who was transferred from the army in 1939 to work in a medical school Chang Chiang Loian, age 80, who had been treated by Dr. Bethune, and nurse Ti Cheng Kuo. <90mn>
