INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT: Interviewer: At the time, were you thinking this was a good thing that I decided to do? Yeah. As I say, at the beginning, I was afraid that, to go into service as an interpreter. I was afraid I might be sent to somewhere that I might run into somebody I know - relatives or classmate or whatever, yeah. But come to think about it now, I'm glad I was sent to Pacific. And I think I mention that without firing a single shot of my carbine I was able to discharge my obligation as an American soldier. And at same time, some help to the people I grew up with. To this, I am grateful for that. I wish I could more, I could save more but we tried our best. Our very best to save them. Too bad they didn't believe in us.
