FA: Dave, when you get to the trial at Wyoming, you were in the photograph in the trial photo, right?

DK: Yes.

FA: Do you recall that photo being taken?

DK: Yes.

FA: What was it like that day? What do you remember of that day, when you first walk into court? Your first impression of the court.

DK: My first impression in the court, it was no different. I went to the court in Sunnyvale when my dad was hit.

FA: Do you recall the photograph being taken?

DK: Yes, oh yeah.

FA: What do you remember about that, that moment?

DK: Let's see, I don't remember the photographer, but he had this panoramic camera so he took the picture.

FA: Did he give you any kind of directions at all about how you guys should sit, what you should do?

FA: Well, he says, "Don't hide your face. Keep it so we can take your face," so everybody had to dodge around, keep the face in the camera.

FA: When the verdict came down, jumping ahead, the trial, testimony, verdict, came down, how did you feel?

DK: When the verdict was announced, I think we were all expecting, well, expecting the worst, but since we got the three-year we were kind of... not enjoy but more or less elated to the, to the shorter sentence because they all said we probably would get five years.

FA: And right now, let's say I'm George Yoshinaga or Mike Masaoka, or George Yoshinaga and says you guys were nothing but draft dodgers. What do you say to me?

DK: How would I answer that question?

FA: To me.

DK: To you? I don't think I put a gun to your head. You did what you want to do and I did what I want to do, that was your prerogative.

FA: Thanks, Dave.
