Show LK RU LK RU Never did get to Korea? You stayed in Japan. Yeah, but we were considered the Korean campaign. Japan was considered part of the Korean campaign be-cause all the people that left Korea stopped off at Japan and they were sent from there to Korea. Right. I understand. So then after that you carne back horne I guess. Yeah. I was in Japan for two and a half years and served as a - went to - graduated out of language school, went to Japan, served as an interpreter and also an interrogater and interrogated all these Japanese prisoners of war that were returned from Russia. And then went to the special agent school for counterintelligence in Japan, gra~uated out of that and, you know, was attached to the counterintelligence squad. That's essentially what my duty was. I was still pretty young. I guess I went over when I was seventeen, eighteen. I went over when I was eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, carne out and got discharged at Camp Stoneman and then returned to Ogden and a friend of mine named George Nakashika, I don't know whatever happened to him but I saw his mother yesterday in Ogden at a wedding recep~ion and asked her where her son was and she said, gee, I don't know. I haven't heard from him for a long time but he and I went into the service at the same time and he visited me and I visited him while we were in the service. 61 |
