KP: I have something. I overheard part of a story about a horse that was hanging around. At the context of where that came from?

MI: Oh, yeah.

KP: You were in block...

MI: It didn't come directly to me but there, there was a horse outside the perimeter of the camp. You know, there was this kind of a fencing around the camp. There was always this horse out there. We were wondering what the heck that horse was doing there. And, and it turned out that it belonged to a Japanese farmer. And the horse could only understand Japanese. And so whoever took over the farm said he had to ship the horse back to the previous owner because the horse didn't take directions or anything, which I thought was funny. [Laughs] Now they have interned a horse.

RP: Good story. That's a great story.

MI: Yeah, that was a fun story.
