    Interviewee: John Alison Interviewer: Mike Rowland Date: March 30, 2004 R: Today is Tuesday, March 30, 2004. I’m meeting with General John Alison in his home in Washington, D.C. General Alison, thank you very much for your willingness to meet with me. I’d like to begin by asking when and where you were born, and where did you grow up? A: I was born in Micanopy, [Florida]. You know that. R: Yes I do, but I’m going to ask some questions that I would say I certainly already know the answer to, but it’s good to hear from you and we can kind of go from there. So I do have a lot of canned questions. A: I didn’t really live in Micanopy. My dad was in the lumber business and he had a saw mill out in the woods, and my mother and he were out there and she came into Micanopy, where I was born. And then, I don’t know when, but very shortly thereafter we moved to Gainesville. So Gainesville’s been my home for my entire life. R: And when were you born? A: [I was born on] November 21, 1912. That makes me almost ninety-two, and I sound like it today. R: What was your childhood like? A: Growing up in Gainesville was wonderful. Of course the public schools were the only schools that Gainesville had, and my first school, and I guess the buildings are still there, was on the eastern side of town. Then I went to Gainesville High School.
