Mr. Delgado. No; if they went on a problem from there and got aboard a small carrier, they probably may have taken him, say, to Hawaii or the Philippines or Guam, something like that, for maneuvers, or Okinawa.
Mr. Liebeler. But you had no knowledge of it at the time?
Mr. Delgado. No.
Mr. Liebeler. You were about to tell us, before I went into this question of how long you and Oswald were together, about the rifle practice that you engaged in. Would you tell us about that in as much detail as you can remember?
Mr. Delgado. We went out to the field, to the rifle range, and before we set out we had set up a pot. High score would get this money; second highest, and so forth down to about the fifth man that was high.
Mr. Liebeler. How many men were there?
Mr. Delgado. Oh, in our company there was about roughly 80 men, 80 to 100 men, and I would say about 40 of us were in the pot. All low ranking EM's, though. By that I mean corporal or below. None of the sergeants were asked to join. Nine times out of ten they weren't firing, just watching you. They mostly watched to see who was the best firer on the line.
Mr. Liebeler. You say there were about 40 men involved in this pot?
Mr. Delgado. Yes.
Mr. Liebeler. And you say that Oswald finished fifth from the highest?
