Who Helped to get life back to normal?

Counselors talked to people finding it hard to handle the disaster and gave advice.Red Cross gave out food,water and clothing to survivors and gave assistance when needed.Soldiers from the army camp at Waiouru came, along with local volunteers, but rescue was difficult and dangerous. The water was full of debris - rocks, trees and wreckage from the train - and still flowing with enough force to knock people from their feet. Oil and silt covered passengers and rescuers alike.
