MK: Many of the Fair Play Committee leaders, there was a difference between the Fair Play Committee, we were the Fair Play Committee members, Fair Play Committee leaders, were seven of them. And most were over draft age and they were married and had children. So they would have never been affected by the draft. But they thought it was very wrong for the government to draft us out of a concentration camp. So they, they were fighting for a clarification of our rights. And they could have been just like anybody else, just ignored it and just act like, like most of the Japanese Americans did at the camps, was just ignore it, and... but to them it was a, really a big issue. They were ready to stick up for us, and they suffered for it.
