[Mr Ramsbotham]

Barrett cleaned shrapnel and nails from the wounds of some victims, side by side with law enforcement investigators who wanted to examine wounds for blast patterns. The investigator's request took him aback at first. "I wasn't stopping to think, 'What could be in this wound that could give him a lead?'"

If I had been that nurse there would have been one more victim to tend to.

It was noted for a couple days after the blast that the pieces of the device can be reconstructed enough to show what was used. I would think that anything embedded in the victims would want to be retrieved for this purpose and as quickly as possible.
