02:49:30  Q:  What did you feel like...?  ÒFrankly I think I was the most nervous I have ever been...I tried as much as I could not to think about it.Ó  Talks about observing the other three pilots who attended the second lecture....a sense of horror, a great element of surprise in it...I felt I was well on the way to somebody elses funeral...stunned silence...why using this even while peace talks were going on at Khe San.Ó

03:04:00  Asked about his confession & Quinn talks about his coercion & fearing for his pregnant wife.  Talks about General Wong telling him he had two things to worry about:  what would happen when he got home & what would happen if he didnÕt confess, or play ball with them.

03:10:39  Quinn:  ÒI am 100% behind this fight against this mili-propaganda that the Chinese have stirred up...Ó  ÒI know they took out many things I had said (which would show it wasnÕt a true confession).Ó  Goes on to say only thing he wants to do is to make people aware that he did not actually confess.
