Great Britain's men's curling skip David Murdoch has said that he wants to win gold at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi for the people of Lockerbie.
The 35-year-old watched the crash of the Pan Am flight 103 in the Scottish town on December 21, 1988 from his father's car.
All 259 people on board and 11 residents of Lockerbie died as a result of the accident, and Murdoch wants to become an Olympic champion for the people of the town.
"I was about 300 yards away and I saw it come down," BBC Sport quotes him as saying. "I was in a car driving back home. I was on an adjacent street. It was just like a bomb going off.
"They used the rink as a morgue and a lot of troops were using our farm to land on. There were lots of bodies scattered all over Lockerbie so they were using the farm to put the Chinooks down. There was the anniversary with Lockerbie recently and there were tough times there.
"No-one can forget what happened and I want to give something back for all the support they've given me. It's a real nice town with a lot of good people in it and I'd love to walk through there with an Olympic medal."
Team GB will take on Canada in the men's final on Friday.
