Item Text: I am a sophomore at BU, and was volunteering in the main medical tent that day. I heard and felt both bombs as we were positioned only 500ft away. As a member of the medical supplies team I did not treat anyone, but I did participate in getting out all the supplies we had for medics to grab and go out to treat patients. As the supply area was positioned right next to one of the medical tent entrances, we saw all the injured people who were rushed in.

This story was collected by the Boston Globe in the days immediately following the Boston Marathon Bombing. GlobeLab collected these anonymous stories on the Boston.com website and donated them to the Our Marathon Archive. We are grateful for this contribution, which gives insight into how Bostonians and visitors to the city understood the bombing events in their immediate aftermath.
