"WHITE: Well, ninety of them—Marines killed ninety of them. They won’t tell you all that stuff, but we did. They killed three or four of us. We killed ninety of them, those … South Africans and the British Eighth Army. We had blocked off seven blocks, wasn’t nothing they could do about it but let us fight it out. And then the Eighth Army took their bunch and moved them further out and let the Marines hold on.
What started the fight? I was there in the fight. Well, they had this big movie. So we was in the movie and the British National Anthem come on, you know, playing their song and everything. And we stood up to it. We honored it. Then the American National Anthem came on playing the national anthem. They booed it, and when they booed it they was in trouble. The fight started there in that theater when they booed the American flag. Before it was over, we’d killed ninety of them, and they never did boo our flag anymore. That was the end of the booing of the American flag. That was in New Zealand."
