But here was a man that within weeks after my shaking his hand died this awful death in Nicaragua. What was he doing in the adjoining country where he was taken prisoner in Honduras and brought back to Nicaragua? He was bringing food down to all of the refugees from Nicaragua in Costa Rica and in Honduras. His wife and family reside at this moment in Florida. I just hope that the 7.500 prisoners that the gentleman is calling attention to tonight will have some recourse. since some of them considered themselves allies of the United States. many of them went through West Point and were enlisted in training schools in this country. that we are not going to watch some sort of Dark Age torture of human beings that are our friends in a country on the continent of North America.
