A2 [Bob Shirkey]: Yeah. Here was the building and you came out the front door and you went down this walkway, which I just said, like a tunnel. You could see from one end to the other, but all these separate buildings which were different wings of the hospital.
Q: This was the infirmary where you took the airman, right?
A: There were some ramps there, I think the old ramp’s still there. It was. Anyway, that’s the kind of buildings they were. You don’t see it today, no.
Q: I knew that the building, most of it, was new, but I wasn’t sure if they’d built onto it...
A: That had been worked over two or three times.
Q: When you look at it looks like it’s been one of these things where they’ve added things to it. So you pulled around behind the infirmary, basically.
A: It was a pretty tight squeeze in there. You couldn’t get very many cars in there.
Q: How many of those ambulances were back there?
A: There were three old box ambulances. I call them box ambulance. I guess you call them... I wasn’t in the military so I don’t know what all the terms were.
Q: Like these old field ambulances.
A: They’ve got the old square field ambulances, you know.
Q: The airman walked up that ramp with you. Both of you guys went into...
A: The airman and I both went in.
Q: Did he see that stuff in...
A: He wasn’t paying any attention because he had, I had a tourniquet and towel over his busted nose, and he went right on in.
Q: Got himself into a little trouble in town, did he?
A: Rode an old motorcycle. The reason I remember it is because he had an old Indian motorcycle, and I’d just bought one. I paid $40 for one and he [rode] one, and I didn’t have any fenders, and I was thinking of maybe of...
Q: So you took him in there, and then basically after you got him taken care of you figured you’d go look up your friend, the nurse. Let’s get that straight.
A: Stan Friedman, I think, somebody thought that I was having a relationship with this nurse. I was not. This girl wouldn’t even think about
