RP: This is tape two of a continuing interview with Henry Nishi. And Henry, we've been talking a little bit about the nursery that you and your friends set up in the camp. Where... did you receive any other help from other internees in the camp with your nursery? Did people come and volunteer their time or were they paid?

HN: No. We had our own crew and that's all we needed. And...

RP: And how many, how many did you have besides your, the guys you mentioned?

HN: I think there were six of us all together.

RP: Joe Kishi, you...

HN: There was Sho Komai.

RP: So Sho Komai, and who were the other three?

HN: And it was Frank Fukuhara. You know Frank.

RP: Uh-huh.

HN: Yeah. And there was... I can't think of their names here. There was... I know there was six of us anyway. There was six of us.
