The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an interview with Joseph Gunterman. Gunterman joined the Navy in November of 1942. He completed Sound School, learning how to operate sound equipment on ships to detect underwater activity. In early 1943 he traveled to New Caledonia. From there he was assigned to the USS Zane (DMS-14), a high-speed mine sweeper. He provides some details of the ship, including weaponry aboard. They traveled to Tulagi, Suva, Fiji, provided escort duty and participated in the Battle of Munda Point in the Solomon Islands. They also participated in the invasions of Saipan, Tinian and Guam, by sweeping mines. The Zane was the model for the stories in The Caine Mutiny by Herman Wouk. Wouk served aboard the Zane with Gunterman. Gunterman was discharged in December of 1945.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Kermit Gebert. Gebert joined the Army Air Forces in August 1941 and attended technical school at Scott Air Force Base. He was stationed in Hawaii until 1945 and then served on Guam in the Signal Corps. He recalls that although the battles were over on Guam, there were still many Japanese holdouts on the island. Gebert operated a radio, receiving coded messages in the jungle. The longest message he received consisted of over 2,000 five-letter code groups and took three hours to transcribe. He had an early interest in radio but grew up on a farm without electricity, so he was elated to receive an assignment that enabled him to work with cutting edge technology, particularly the radio teletype. Gebert was on a ship coming home when the atomic bombs were dropped. He was discharged and earned a college degree on the GI Bill.
