The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Martin Mark. Mark joined the Army in April 1943 and received basic training at Camp Joseph T. Robinson. Upon completion, he was reassigned to the Pacific and was shipped to New Caledonia for further training. At Suva, Fiji, he was trained by natives to perform jungle reconnaissance. As part of the Americal Division, he served for one year on the frontlines at Bougainville, where he built pillboxes and performed a dozen recon missions. During those missions, he engaged in hand-to-hand combat and destroyed Japanese military buildings while identifying targets and trails for his unit to follow. He then shipped to Leyte, where during recon missions he protected Filipino natives from Japanese atrocities. His service ended when he developed jungle rot from a day spent in the Torokina River. He was treated in Leyte with penicillin but never fully recovered. On his way back to the States, he suffered his first malaria attack and was taken to the Letterman General Hospital in San Francisco. Mark returned home to New York City.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an interview with John Miles. Miles made a deal with the local draft board in his area that he would join the Army right after his sister was married.

He returned, was discharged and went on to attend Georgia Tech.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Jim Wood. Wood joined the Marine Corps in January 1943 after graduating from the University of Illinois. Following special training near Camp Pendleton, Wood joined the 3rd Raider Battalion for further training in New Caledonia. His first campaign was Bougainville, where the dense jungle made it difficult to spot enemies until they were dangerously close. Wood, a rifleman, was permitted to carry a Thompson machinegun after his assistant squad leader was killed. On Guam, his platoon lost 15 men. He landed at Okinawa with little resistance but in his 15-mile walk across the island he came under heavy fire emanating from enormous caves. By this time, his unit had become part of the 4th Marines, and Wood was the last man standing in his platoon, with 21 kills and only a minor shell fragment wound. He finished the war as a squad leader at Yokosuka Naval Base as part of the occupation force and was personally saluted by Nimitz.
