Description
An account of the resource
Hiromi Suehiro begins the interview talking about his family and how they immigrated to Hawaii. His father, coming from Japan, ended up fighting in World War I for the United States, while his mother was born in Hawaii. While growing up, he would take an anti-Japan stance, as a way to make sure his father would not send him there, attending Japanese language school but not taking the exams amongst other things. After high school, he would attend the University of Hawaii while working as a watch maker as well. He talks more about his family and growing up in Hawaii before speaking about where he was during the Pearl Harbor attacks. Living just 10 miles from Pearl Harbor, he would see Japanese planes flying above his home and even seeing debris hitting his neighbors homes.

Suehiro continues talking about his experiences during the attacks on Pearl Harbor and afterwards, including facing discrimination and seeing the Varsity Victory Volunteers at the University of Hawaii. Hearing about the 100th/442nd forming, Suehiro decided that he too, would volunteer for the Army and would get inducted and shipped off without even having the chance to tell his family.

He also discusses his father being taken in by the FBI after Pearl Harbor as we was active in the community and had a good education. Next, he talks about his basic training and how he would write to his family throughout his time there.

Description
An account of the resource
Suehiro discusses his mindset during the war, which was readied by a letter written from his mother to not bring shame to his father. This got him to rid himself of cowardice and continue to push on during combat. He would experience this bravery during combat near the Mussolini Canal as artillery shells were landing all around him. He tells a heartbreaking story of a group of soldiers that were sent out during broad daylight by superiors, only to find them fifteen minutes later, all shot. He discusses the hardships of the soldiers and the good men that were lost, especially during the Lost Battalion. Suehiro talks more about combat and the details of the weapons that they and the German soldiers used. He also speaks about the camaraderie between soldiers, and seeing friends get wounded in action.

He would help get his friends that was also wounded, back to safety and would head to the Red Cross to take care of his own wound, taking many penicillin shots over his course of injury. He had a strong desire to rejoin his friends at the front line but would be denied due to disability, he would end up in the hospital for a year and head back home to Hawaii for his discharge. He would receive a Purple Heart, amongst other medals for his bravery overseas. When arriving home in Hawaii, his parents were very happy to see him and the end of the war would come soon after. He would work, making good money before quitting and moving to Japan.

Description
An account of the resource
Kodama discusses the feeling he had that Japanese Americans were limited in their activities during his childhood, including dances and sports. He had hopes of attending UC Berkeley and was originally accepted but was later rejected and would end up gardening instead. He talks about his knowledge of the wars overseas, and hearing that the USA and Japan would fight one another eventually. Next, he talks about being at a basketball tournament in San Jose, when he first heard of the attacks on Pearl Harbor. Soon after, they would get an evacuation notice and have to sell off their belongings or give them away. They would be sent to Santa Anita race track for temporary detention, saying "shikata ga nai" to their situation.

Description
An account of the resource
After the evacuation, Kodama and his family would head to Santa Anita race track where they would spend some time in a temporary detention center, where they would have almost no privacy. It was there, that he would meet his first wife, who taught him how to dance. He also talks about riots that also occurred and the restrictions they had because of that. After this, they would be moved to Heart Mountain concentration camp, where living conditions were also poor and the weather was cold. As he became angry towards the Army, he decided to become a no-no boy but would later decide he would only join if drafted. Later, while working in Chicago, he would be drafted into the Army and begin his basic training at Camp Blanding.

Description
An account of the resource
Kodama talks about his shipment overseas following his basic training at Camp Blanding. He would get on a liberty ship and head for Southampton, thinking they would meet up with the 442nd in Belgium, but instead they would join up at Sospel, France. There, he would get his assignment to be a runner for Headquarters. The next campaign would be to break the Gothic Line, which they would do in just a half hour whereas, no other division was able to break it in two years. He gives a couple of stories about his assignment as a runner and talks about the brutalities of war, including seeing dead and wounded soldiers. After the Gothic Line, they would go to Genoa, where German soldiers were surrendering in mass. The unit would interrogate the prisoners of war at Ghedi Air Base, which would spell the end of the war.
