Takahashi discusses his whereabouts during the attacks on Pearl Harbor; as he was already in the Army, he would get the news at Camp San Luis Obispo and commanded to carry live ammunition while in the camp.

He would then be moved to Fort McClellan for a second basic training, before being sent overseas to Naples. There, he would join I company and make his way to France.
