Bugs, Snakes, Music, And It’s Too Hot

Pvt. Lloyd Aoki of Co. L., 442nd Inf. attended the University of Hawaii for a year studying entomology and worked as a federal plant inspector before his voluntary enlistment. This being his first trip to the mainland, he was greatly impressed with the orchards that he saw in California. He was amazed at their size and variety. He is musically talented, being able to play the violin, clarinet, and snare drums. He states that his hobby is insects and hunting. Although his hobby may be insects, he does not care in the least for the snakes that he thought were so numerous in Mississippi. As far as the weather is concerned all he can say about it is, “it's too hot!”.
