He recalled a food shortage in Japan and saw the Japanese nationals trying to survive. During George's travel, he became friends with three Marines who fought in the Guadalcanal on a transport ship from Hawaii to the Mainland. A year later, George saw his Marines friends again. George was sent home early from the occupation and went to Schofield. He was at Schofield for six months and was assigned to the motor pool as a dispatcher. At the end of George's service, his rank was Corporal. George continued his education at the University of Hawaii. After graduation, George could not find a job. Later, Thomas Yoshida told George about the job in Okinawa as a Court interpreter working for the Department of Army Civilians. George worked for the Department of Army Civilian for approximately a year, interpreting, collecting property records in Naha, and coordinating workers for repairing a 90-foot boat. When George's one-year contract ended, he came home to Hawaii. He worked serval jobs before working at the State Tax Office as a tax auditor for 23 years. In George's retirement years and he stayed active with golf. He and his wife have six children, four grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. George reflects on the occupation and the Nisei linguists and their contributions. In George's opinion, he felt the Nisei linguists were the bridge between the United States Army and the Japanese nationals. Although the occupation was successful in helping Japan to rebuild, George felt the main point is to treat the people well with respect. George hopes for his grandchildren and great-grandkids to have a good education, a good job, and marry into a fine family. His message for future generations is to be kind to one another and treat them as human beings. children CIC civilians corporal dating employment family friends Guadacanal Hawaii Hawaiian soldiers Higher education humanity interpeter Japan Japanese American marines marriage Military Intelligence Service (MIS) natives Nisei Nisei linguists Occupation Forces Okinawa post war rank rebuild Red Cross Sansei Schofield Social activities starvation Tokyo troop ship University of Hawaii Yonsei https://ndajams.omeka.net/files/original/0cb292e0ff498b34a203e2f787f6b6ad.xml 1dbeb76f77f8a4559711eef64b04a9d4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
