Show INTERVIEW: Nieves Page 4 some of them from the very low East Side. Our group was from New York, New Jersey, and Delaware. That's why they called us Second Corp Area. And most of the kids never had seen an animal, let alone be out in the open. So it done them a lot of good, to most of them. BM: Were most of them Puerto Ricans? RN: No, I was the only Puerto Rican in my bunch. And then sooner, because they used to send kids out every six months; it was a six month enlistment. And those that didn't want to reenlist, they replaced them. Eventually, it was 23 Puerto Ricans in our camp, by the time the war started ... in the World War II, there was 23 Puerto r ·~a ns there. There was, in those days, they didn't let you recruit anybody locally. In other words, if you were from Kentucky or Tenessee, that's all there was. They didn't want anybody from anyplace else. They got ... hard to recruit, things were getting better, less kids joined, they were getting more jobs in the city. So, they started recruiting local people from Utah at the very end. Eventually, they got about 4 or 5 Mexican-Americans in there ... local, from New Mexico and Utah. And that was the only ones they had. GC: Do you remember the names of any of these that lived in Utah? RN: Y0o, I f0mC'mb0r n f0llow nanwd Sunnno MnnonnnrC'z. And I remember a fellow that has a kid up here at the University now. |
