Robert Kimura oral history interview, part 6 of 8, April 24, 1999

Kimura talks about his experiences as an interrogator throughout the war, speaking with Japanese prisoners of war and trying to get as much information as possible. He talks about finding a piece of paper which showed the date and location of an attack by the 17th Army and would end up saving lots of soldiers. Another experience would earn him a Bronze Star as he would help to map the location of two artillery guns with information received from prisoners of war. After this, he talks more about his experiences on the front line, interrogating prisoners in Bougainville and taking a leave and hitchhiking to Sydney.
