They took us down to Victoria, that's the city on the island, down below Wan Chai Gap, and oh, this was the starting of the horror. They had a hundred, a hundred and fifty of us and they put us all in one room about the size of this room and we stayed there overnight. Well guys couldn't, it was impossible to lay down, we all just squatted down against the wall, you couldn’t stand any longer and we all stayed in there. I'll never to this day forget the screaming. I'll never forget the screaming out there. The Japanese soldiers were getting, rounding up the Chinese woman, and they were raping them by the score outside, and these Chinese girls were screaming and all that, and they were killing them and all that kind of junk, right outside, you know. This was horror itself. That was, as far as I remember, that was the very first taste of real horror we got right there. You know the feeling that goes inside you and to hear what was happening to those girls and woman outside our room we're in. I'll never live long enough to forget this.
