William Yoshito Thompson arrives in France and lands in Marseille. William's unit is the 2nd Battalion Head Quarters, which services the Rifle Company. In the Rifle Company, there is E Company, F Company, and G Company (the heavy weapons company). October 15, William encounters his first battle in the surrounding areas of Bruyeres.

Although William's unit is not assigned to the Lost Battalion rescue, he discusses the events and gives credit to his unit for helping to get the Germans out of the Vosges area.
After leaving Southern France, William returns to Italy for the last push at the Gothic Line. He remembers moving fast through the towns. The Rifle Company and William's company are both facing casualties. William's company loses serval men plus their Company Commander. The replacement Company Commander is Nishimura.
William discusses the German surrendering and the end of the war. He leaves Italy in November and returns to California to Camp Beale. From there, he goes on a boat to Hawaii and is discharged from the Army in December.
Post-war, William furthers his education at the University of Hawaii and works for the Water Department for 17 years. He gets married and has four children and six grandchildren.
Furthermore, William talks about the importance of character building, his Issei uncle, and Shiego Joseph Takata. Despite the racial prejudices, the Nisei veterans persevered and showed oyakoukou - bringing honor to their parents and their county.

Barney Hajiro oral history interview, part 2 of 2, January 17, 2010
Barney Hajiro recalls the locals of Bruyeres and Biffontaine were friendly and nice. However, they were confused to see Japanese Americans in an American Army uniform. Barney was in M Company then transferred to I Company. The guys in I Company were good soldiers. He recalls Mutt Sakamoto.
Barney was wounded in a firefight and stayed in the hospital to recuperate. He said he was lucky that the bullet hit him in the arm rather than in the chest. Barney returned to the United States and stayed in a Michigan hospital to recover from his injuries. Post-war, Barney received the Medal of Honor. He recalls his army friend that was killed in action.
He flew to Washington DC, and President Clinton presented him the Medal of Honor. The recognition represents honor to the country. The Medal of Honor belongs to I Company, not just him. They all fought together.
