Description
An account of the resource
Jerry spent his formative years in Ogden and Salt Lake City, Utah. After he completed high school, he applied to the University of Utah and where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in 1939. After Pearl Harbor was attacked on December 7, 1941, Jerry became heavily involved in the Salt Lake City chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League and, by 1943, he had enlisted in the United States military. He was inducted at Fort Douglas, completed his basic training in Camp Blanding, Florida and then was sent to Camp Savage in Minnesota to brush up on his Japanese language skills. After many months of rigorous language training at Camp Savage and at Fort Snelling, Jerry became an interrogator for the Military Intelligence Service (MIS). Before embarking on his first mission though, he was sent to Fort Lawton in Washington and then shipped out to the Schofield Barracks in Oahu, Hawaii for “jungle training” and additional practice in interrogation methods. Jerry served in his capacity as an interrogator in Leyte, Philippines and then in Okinawa and, finally, in Korea. The war ended while Jerry was stationed in Okinawa and he was sent to Korea where he earned enough “points” to earn a discharge from the military. However, when he reached his quota, he chose to reenlist and was eventually sent to Japan for approximately a ten month period. His new role - which was associated with agricultural research arm of General MacArthur’s headquarters - was to investigate farms, hydroponics and animal husbandry and submit his reports to the U.S. government. He was honorably discharged from service in 1947.<br /><br /><br /><em>Biographic information from the Japanese American Service Committee Legacy Center Archives</em>

Description
An account of the resource
Uesato continues his discussion of his time in occupied Japan. During this time, he was an interpreter for political analysts who were trying to get as much information as they could regarding Japan's population in politics. In this way, Uesato was able to make a lot of direct impact on the Japanese government, including involvement with the first general election that Japanese women got to vote in. Other than politics, he was also able to uncover some information on his brother that had been stuck in Japan after Pearl Harbor. Unfortunately, he found that he had passed away after contracting malaria. Uesato continued his interpreting in occupied Japan until he decided that a college education would be more important than a steady job. He would, however, end up coming back to Japan quite often as a purser, spending time in both Japan and San Francisco, where he would meet his future wife.

Description
An account of the resource
Murakami continues his recollection of the Marysville Temporary Detention Center and the living conditions there. Shortly after that, he and his family were moved to Tule Lake Concentration Camp where tensions were high and at one point they were tear gassed as hostility ran high. Once the war had ended, Murakami was accepted into UC Berkeley and would attend that until he decided to join the Army. It was then that he would head overseas to Japan to work as an interpreter with the 21st Infantry Regiment and the Quartermaster Corps. After about a year he headed back to California to meet up with his wife and attend UCLA where he would complete his dental degree. Next, he would head to Howard University and he would end up staying in the Washington DC area. It was there that he became involved with social activism and continuing to spread the Japanese American legacy, including helping with the Japanese American Memorial to Patriotism During World War II.

Yoshino begins the interview speaking about the surrender of Japan and a little about his childhood, growing up as a Japanese American.

He heads to Fort Snelling in Minnesota for the language school and is preparing for invasion when instead, the war ends. Yoshino is re-routed to Japan to be part of the occupation. He speaks about arriving in Yokohama and seeing the flat devastation from the firebombs all the way to Tokyo. There, he works as an interpreter and in a typing office, where he would oversee local Japanese girls typing characters for reports. During this time, he also was free to explore Tokyo, including the popular Ginza street.

An account of the resource
Oshiro begins the interview with a short introduction and talking about his whereabouts during the Japanese surrender during World War Two. Next, he talks about his childhood, growing up in Hawaii and being brought up with a heavy influence of Japanese culture, including Japanese language school every day after regular school. He would grow up on a pineapple plantation, often having nothing to eat and struggling for money. He would jump at the first chance he had to not work on the plantation, by joining the Army, after a recruiter told him about the GI Bill. He would head to Schofield Barracks in Honolulu on his first ever plane ride and have a very fast basic training, sending him over to Yokohama after just six weeks of training. Once he arrived in Japan, he would see the destruction that the war had caused and begin his second stint of training, learning conversational Japanese at the NYK building.

An account of the resource
Kaneshiro gives some final notes about Rohwer Concentration Camp, including how they received news of the 442nd, recreational activities and where to go after the war had ended. Once he had left Rohwer and back in Los Angeles, Kaneshiro had trouble finding steady work until he saw a poster from General MacArthur asking for Japanese speaking Americans who were interested in volunteering for the Army. After joining the Military Intelligence Service (MIS), Kaneshiro was sent to training, and shortly after to Asia. After finally landing in Tokyo, his team worked to interrogate Japanese prisoners of war to try to extract secret information. After 5 years in Tokyo, a few men, including Kaneshiro, were sent to Korea during the Korean War to extract information. After a few months there, he returned to Tokyo where his wife waited for him.

Description
An account of the resource
Following his language school training, Hamashige went to continued his training, going to basic, then to Fort Snelling for interpreting training before being sent out to the Philippines for his first assignment. As the war was coming to an end, the work was light and he was shipped back out to Yokohama where he would see the damage done to Japan during the war. Again having light work, he was able to explore the surrounding areas, seeing relatives, relaying messages for those in need and visiting Hiroshima. Next, he was moved to Fukushima, where they would take over a power plant. After his discharge, Hamashige decided to further pursue his education, attending the University of Hawaii, and then Bowling Green State University before moving to New York to get his master's degree from NYU. It was there that he had trouble finding a job, although qualified, until he met the family of the controller of Chase Manhattan Bank. He instantly received a job and worked there until his retirement.

Out of gratitude for his kindness, the Japanese laborer's father gave Kazuo a katana, or Samurai sword, which he is still in possession of today. Kazuo talks about how he was sent home because his father was terminally ill, but by the time he returned home, his father had died. Kazuo describes the purpose of the Nisei soldiers' involvement in the reconstruction of Japan, and his personal experiences during the occupation.

Description
An account of the resource
In this video clip, Yoshiaki Fujitani continues to describes his experience in Tokyo during the occupation -- he only witnessed one casualty during his entire military service. He and his Military Intelligence Service team were awarded the "Commendation Ribbon with Pendant" medal for their service. Yoshiaki was discharged from the United States Army in 1946. Upon returning home, his father convinced him to study Buddhism and become a Buddhist minister. While working as a minister at a Buddhist temple in Chicago, he met his wife, and they had three children and five grandchildren. The message he leaves for future generations is "to learn from the past."

Description
An account of the resource
After receiving his training in Minnesota, Yoshiaki Fujitani was sent to Camp Richie to work in the Pacific Military Intelligence Service Research Section (PACMIRS), where he translated captured Japanese documents. When the war ended, he was sent overseas to Tokyo, Japan, where he worked at the Allied Translators and Interpreters Section (ATIS). He describes how the people in Japan begged the American soldiers for food -- he gave one man a box of Almond Rocas. Before returning to the United States, his cousin - who served in the Japanese Army - gave him his Samurai sword, since as an American soldier, he was part of the conquering forces.
