Oral History Interview with Jess Pacheco, August 28, 2010

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with J L Pacheco. Pacheco joined the Marine Corps in May 1943 and received basic training at Camp Elliot. He received further training at Guadalcanal as a Raider with the 1st Marine Division. Upon completion, he was assigned to New Caledonia for special training in demolition as part of the 4th Raider Battalion.

The Raider battalions were later disbanded and instead formed the new 4th Marine Regiment. After an amphibious landing at Guam, Pacheco describes the perilous banzai-type combat in which he was engaged. In addition to his demolition duties, sealing caves, he occasionally served as an untrained mortarman and also retrieved wounded men from live combat areas.

Oral History Interview with Paul Wojahn, August 28, 2010

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Paul Wojahn. Wojahn joined the Marine Corps in July 1942 and received basic training in San Diego. Upon completion he was assigned to the 1st Pioneer Battalion, 1st Marine Division. At Pavuvu, he helped to build the camp, exterminating land crabs and rats and making roads out of crushed coral. Being from the Midwest, he had no difficulty driving trucks on the coral roads, which were slippery when wet. At Peleliu he landed in the third wave and was responsible for manually hauling ammunition and other supplies ashore. Under heavy mortar fire, he found himself hiding chest-deep in sand until he found man-made craters in the coral to use as a foxhole. At Okinawa he was regarded as an expert truck driver, able to maneuver over muddy tracks where other vehicles resorted to being pulled by a cable. He recalls having to change seven tires in one day due to driving in mud that was loaded with shrapnel. Wojahn returned home at the end of the war and was discharged in at Camp Pendleton. He enjoyed a career as a game warden and retired after 25 years.

Report of Official Foreign Travel to Montreal, Canada

How can DOE, NNSA, and Y-12 best handle the integration of information from diverse sources, and what will best ensure that legacy data will survive changes in computing systems for the future? Although there is no simple answer, it is becoming increasingly clear throughout the information-management industry that a key component of both preservation and integration of information is the adoption of standardized data formats. The most notable standardized format is XML, to which almost all data is now migrating. XML is derived from SGML, as is HTML, the common language of the World Wide Web. XML is becoming increasingly important as part of the Y-12 data infrastructure. Y-12 is implementing a new generation of XML-based publishing systems. Y-12 already has been supporting projects at DOE Headquarters, such as the Guidance Streamlining Initiative (GSI) that will result in the storage of classification guidance in XML. Y-12 collects some test data in XML as the result of Electronic Data Capture (EDC), and XML data is also used in Engineering Releases. I am participating in a series of projects sponsored by the PRIDE initiative that include the capture of dimensional certification and other similar records in XML, the creation of XML formats …
