Ohanesian, Charles H. (Interview outline and video), 2007
Smither, James (Interviewer)
Charles Ohanesian is a WW II veteran who served in the U.S. Army with the 2nd Armored Division from 1942 until being seriously wounded in 1944, arriving in North Africa after the German surrender there, and participating in the campaigns in Sicily and Normandy. In this account, Ohanesian discusses rebelling against his parents by forging their signatures to enlist early, training in the U.S, combat experiences in Sicily and Normandy, and his life after the war. Ohanesian also recounts aspects of war often not talked about on the Allied side, such as the confusion of the Normandy invasion, the execution of prisoners, and keeping of contraband.
