The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral monologue by Nubuo Kishiue. Kishiue, the son of Japanese immigrants, joined the Army in November 1941 and received training at Camp Robertson. After the war began, he was granted leave to help his family relocate to an internment camp. Upon his return, he was sent to language school at Camp Savage. He was then assigned to the 27th Infantry Division and shipped to Saipan. There he served as a medical interpreter for civilians at Camp Susupe. He occasionally accompanied personnel on intelligence missions, scouring battlefields for paperwork in the aftermath of firefights. After the war, and during a sweep of the island, Kishiue was nearly killed by a Japanese soldier who refused to surrender. Kishiue later returned home and rented land to farm. He believes the discrimination his family faced before the war, including being unable to own land, was remedied by the Nisei soldiers who proved their loyalty to America. Kishiue ultimately purchased his own land and farmed until his retirement in 1990.
