Oral History Interview with Aaron Mendoza, September 7, 2012
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Aaron Mendoza. Mendoza joined the Navy in 1943 and received basic training in San Diego. He attended torpedo school and was assigned to an aircraft torpedo lab at Kaneohe Naval Air Station. There he filled warheads with air so the torpedo could be retrieved after test fires. Torpedoes that passed quality control would then be filled with explosive warheads and loaded into underground silos. After 14 months, his unit was dispersed. Mendoza was in Great Lakes awaiting further orders when the war ended. He was discharged in December 1945 and worked as a civilian employee at Kelly Air Force Base, retiring with a GS-12 ranking. He then worked as a salesman for Control Data, selling supercomputers to the likes of NASA and Texaco. He emphasizes the importance of staying active in retirement, and at the age of 88 he ranked number one nationally in Wii bowling.

Oral History Interview with Thomas Gillette, May 7, 2012
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Thomas Gillette. Gillette was 10 years old when Pearl Harbor was attacked. His father was commander of the shipyard. At a party hosted by Gillette's family in November 1941, he overheard captains discuss the potential of being dragged into the Philippines; none of them suspected an attack at Pearl. His uncle, a senator from Iowa, warned Roosevelt that the Japanese fleet was sailing eastward; he believes the President intentionally withheld this information from Kimmel. Narrowly surviving the attack, Gillette and his mother boarded the first convoy to the mainland along with 2,500 women and children, while Gillette's father stayed behind to oversee ship repairs. Having lived amongst Japanese in Hawaii, his family was shocked by the practice of Japanese-American internment. His father joined the family at Bremerton where he successfully reorganized the mismanaged shipyard and was promoted to admiral. Gillette went on to earn degrees in marine engineering and naval architecture and was commissioned in the Navy in 1952 at the age of 21, following in his father's footsteps and supervising ship repairs.

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Oscar Robert Freesen. After graduating from high school, Freesen was drafted into the Army in January, 1944. He speaks about training in Georgia and Texas. In January, 1945, Freesen was sent to England and then to Belgium. Upon arriving there, Freesen was assigned to Company K, 331st Regiment, 83rd Infantry Division. He describes some of his combat experiences in Belgium.

Freesen also speaks of connecting, decades after the war, with the daughter of a friend with whom he served in Europe. Freesen was able to verify to the daughter that her father, who was killed in Germany, knew she had been born before he died. She had spet her entire life up to that point not knowing if her father knew she had been born. After recovering in the hospital, Freesen rejoined his unit and served as a clerk until he managed to get sent home after his father became ill. He returned in November, 1945.
