Transcription
They took all our clothing away from us and give us just a Japanese khaki. A thin Japanese khaki clothes. They took all of our clothes away from us. We didn’t have any underclothes or anything. They give us them G-strings they called them.Interviewer: And what were they, the G-strings? That was just a long piece of cloth about so wide, probably about this long. And it had a string on one end of it and then you tied the string and you pulled the other one up between it and flapped it over the belt, over the string and it would hang down and that’s what you wore.
