I was in New York. When they finally caught up with me, I'll say. I was in Chicago, and they had to follow to catch up with me. Finally they caught up with me in New York. I went for the interview to be inducted. The war was practically over at that time. This was in '45. It was the end of the war. But anyway, when I came up, I was pretty bitter about this thing, because I felt that I had let myself out to really do something for this country. I respected it and all that. I had a love of it. I realized what it meant. I wanted to be an important part of it. When I came up for the interview for - the appointment, or whatever, to be brought into it, I was talking about what would happen. They were asking me about what would I do. I said after - I'd passed everything even with those examinations until we got to the physical. When we got to the physical, they start talking about what I would - what my thoughts were and what I would want to do. I said, "The first thing I want to do is, as soon as I learn how to use a gun and have the rifles and get all that training, and they put me in, the first thing I'm going to do is try to look up the top person in the army that I'll have to work with, and that's the one that I'm going to waste. I'm going to put him away. " They looked at me like I was cursed - "You mean you would   commit murder? " I said, "Yeah, because I've already - I'm not going to fight somewhere, to fight somebody that I don't know what they did to me. Nobody did anything to me in Germany. So I'm not interested in that. " I said, "I offered, and you people turned me down. " I said, "So I'm not interested. If you're going to try to make me go in the army at this stage, and I've got a family, and I'm doing this" and all that. He looked at me and he just stamped "reject. " That was it.
