Open LibraryAbout this book
"Through oral histories, memoirs and rare photographs, David W. Swift Jr. (whose Caucasian father was among these men) documents the Military Intelligence Service (MIS) First Class. One month before the attack on Pearl Harbor, these men, mostly Japanese American enlisted soldiers, were secretly recruited and trained at the Presidio of San Francisco. They made vital contributions to America's war effort, helping to shorten the war in the Pacific. Their personal accounts detail their classified exploits as translators, interrogators and interpreters in every major battlefield in the Pacific."--
