592 Q They were in a double line?

A That is correct.

593 Q Who started shoving them into the water and started shooting them?

A Some soldier. I do not know who started the shoving or the shooting.

594 Q How many were taken prisoner from this tower?

A I don't believe any, sir.

595 Q I think you told me that they came out and that you put them in two rows?

A Sixteen men were lined up. I thought you meant how many were marched away.

596 Q How many of them did you shoot?

A I don't recall killing anybody.

597 Q You did shoot?

A I did fire, yes, sir.

598 Q How many feet away from the prisoners were you approximately when you fired?

A I could not say, sir.

599 Q Would it be over four feet?

A I can't commit myself, sir, because I don't know any more.

600 Q The distance was quite close?

A I don't know what you mean by quite close.

601 Q What would be your estimate of the distance?

A I could not estimate, sir, because I was more than excited because I believed my life was in danger.
