Oral History Interview with Ramon Acuna
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Ramon Acuna. Acuna grew up in Arizona and joined the Army National Guard in 1941. He joined the Bushmasters, Company B, known as the Bushmasters. Acuna spent time in Panama for a year before sailing to Brisbane, Australia on the USS Dickman (APA-13). He also spent time on Toem and Wakde Netherlands, New Guinea, and Luzon. His division was at the Battle of Lone Tree Hill or the battle of Wakda-Sarmi. Acuna stayed on Sarmi, ill with malaria, which his team went onto Noemfoor Island. Once he recovered he rejoined them. On the road to Rosario, Acuna's arm was hit and he went to a hospital at San Fernando. From the hospital he was taken to Hollandia and from there took the USS Monterey (CVL-26) back to San Francisco for more surgery.

An Historical Analysis of the Macquarie Broadcasting Service Pty. Ltd., Sydney, Australia, 1938-1958
Australia's dual system of broadcasting has provided national and commercial radio services to Australians in both urban and remote areas. Networks were formed to serve these areas, but advertising agencies tended to dominate smaller commercial networks on behalf of their clients. Most of these failed. The Macquarie Broadcasting Service Pty. Ltd. (MBS) network began in 1938 and offered network programming and sales representation to stations affiliating with them. Its subsidiary, Artransa Pty. Ltd., also produced and syndicated programs and provided sales representation both nationally and internationally. This study concludes that MBS' contribution to Australian commercial broadcasting was the development of networking and that it had the greater listenership of any commercial network in this time period.
