A frequently repeated quote, and for good reason, is an admonition that can be traced back to Archilochus, an 8 8 by Staff of Submarine Learning Center early Greek lyrical poet and soldier circa 650 B.C.

    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with JOHN L. BACH United States Coast Guard Seaman in WWII 1994 OH 2 40 OH 40 Bach, John L., (1920-2003). Oral history interview, 1994. User Copy: 2 sound cassettes (c.a. 84 min.), analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 1 sound cassette (c.a. 84 min), analog, 1 7/8 ips. mono. Abstract Bach, a Madison, Wis. native, discusses his service in the United States Coast Guard as a sonarman during World War II. As a sonarman Bach relates information about sonar technology as well as imparts information relating to military life. He recounts training at Curtis Bay (Maryland) and sonar school (Key West, Florida) including the development of new training courses, creation of insignia, shipboard equipment shortages, and other difficulties incurred while expanding the military. Serving aboard the Thetis, a patrol boat that escorted convoys along the East Coast, he relates his shipboard role, coastal encounters with German submarines, and the basic nature of the sonar technology. Bach offers a unique perspective on the World War II home-front, since his home port was the Brooklyn Naval Yard, he discusses rationing and treatment of servicemen. Transferred to the Navy 107 base in Argentia (Newfoundland) he comments on convoy escort, race relations within the Navy and Coast Guard, USO shows, alcohol consumption on the base, and depression among servicemen. Bach mentions behavior at exotic ports and gays in the military. Bach also discusses his discharge process, return to Madison, Wis. and civilian life, membership in the American Legion, and differences between World War I and II veterans.
