THE HAWAI'I NISEI STORY
Americans of Japanese Ancestry During WWII

Ray Nosaka
100th Infantry Battalion (Separate)

For half a day on Cat Island, Ray trains dogs; for the remainder of the day, he fishes, plays guitar, and sings songs to pass the time on Ship Island. For lack of potable water, the men drink beer.

Sworn to secrecy, the dog trainers are not allowed to speak about their work. Officers carefully censor their letters.
