Captain King. Actually no—not a matter particularly of concern—there was not anything happening there that I thought was unusual or anything that I was particularly concerned about. There were more newsmen going down in there than there were up on the third floor and I went down there actually to be available more than anything else.
Mr. Hubert. In other words, the way that the letter reads—the way that sentence reads—the fact that newsmen were there was what motivated you to go there?
Captain King. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. Because otherwise you had no connection with the transfer?
Captain King. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. And you thought it was your duty to be there since you were the press man?
Captain King. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. And where the press was, you would be?
Captain King. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. I notice in the fourth paragraph you state that you talked briefly with Captain Jones, Captain Talbert, and Captain Arnett—do you recall the nature of the conversation?
