The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Clarence Kendall. Upon graduating from the University of Missouri in 1942, Kendall enrolled in Naval Reserve Midshipmen’s School at Notre Dame. His first assignment was on the USS Stack (DD-406) as an assistant gunnery officer. He recounts dramatic details of the Battle of Vella Gulf and feels that his success in combat was due to his diligent studies and mastery of technology such as radar. Kendall transferred to the USS Essex (CV-9) as a battery officer, participating in invasions from the Marshall Islands through Okinawa, where a kamikaze flew 20 feet above Kendall’s head before hitting a gun and exploding. Following the war, Kendall transferred to the new USS Juneau (CL-119) and spent 90 days aboard, during which time he wrote the fire control doctrine for the ship. Much to his captain’s chagrin, as Kendall was a valuable asset to the ship, he was discharged thereafter and went on to attend law school.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Philip Lapaglia. As an only child, Lapaglia was exempt from the draft, but he enlisted with the Army Air Forces upon learning that they were looking for aviation cadets. After completing pre-flight training, he learned that they were looking for Romance language translators, so he went to Camp Richards for intelligence school as a speaker of French and Italian. The need for translators suddenly dropped following the surrender of Italy, so Lapaglia went into photo intelligence. He learned to use aerial photography to track changes in the terrain and to perform comparative coverage. In the Pacific, Lapaglia traveled extensively to many islands, including New Caledonia, Guadalcanal, Bougainville and the Philippines. While on New Caledonia, his outfit’s portable photo lab was stolen, so they improvised a new one out of an ambulance. Lapaglia traded photos for local supplies, because cameras were exotic in some locales. On Bougainville, he learned that the Japanese had a mortal fear of Fijian warriors, so intelligence was fed to native spies purporting that the allies were sending Fijians to battle. After the war ended, Lapaglia returned home and was discharged in December 1945.
