Interview with Joseph A. Hatala, WWII veteran. CCSU Veterans History Project

Interview conducted by Eileen Hurst. Joseph Hatala was drafted into the US Army in 1942. He went to basic training at Camp Edwards, Mass., where they learned mostly about marching and firing weapons. Shortly after, his unit, the 406th Anti-aircraft battalion was sent overseas to North Africa. Hatala worked as a heavy machine gunner in the unit, and his main job was to protect the heavy artillery. After North Africa, the battalion was sent to Sicily by LST, where they stayed until the campaign was over. The anti-aircraft unit was then switched to the infantry where they worked as combat engineers in the 5th Army. Their job was to oversee the construction and repair of bridges and roads. Hatala remained with this unit until the end of World War II, traveling across Europe and Northern Africa. He was discharged in 1945, and returned to Connecticut where he worked at Pratt and Whitney for 43 years.

Warning: This talk contains mature language. When the Killing's Done is my thirteenth novel, published by Viking in February of 2011. The novel takes up some of the environmental themes of earlier novels such as A Friend of the Earth and The Tortilla Curtain,and stories like 'Carnal Knowledge,' 'Top of the Food Chain,' 'Tooth and Claw' and a host of others. It is set in the past decade on the California Channel Islands, where a rather testy turf war was fought between animal rights activists and the biologists of the National Park Service and the Nature Conservancy over the elimination of non-native species of plants and animals, and this provided the inspiration for the book. In fact, I still preserve a yellowing newspaper headline from six or seven years ago (it's pinned beneath a magnet on the refrigerator door), which reads: EAGLES ARRIVE AS PIGS ARE KILLED, a reference to the reintroduction of the bald eagle and the eradication of the feral pig. In my telling, the animal rights activists, led by Dave La Joy, a local businessman, and his folksinger inamorata, Anise Reed, are opposed to the taking of life under any circumstances, while the more practical people of the Park Service, under the direction of the biologist Alma Boyd Takesue, favor elimination of the aliens in the interest of preserving the native species. Thus, for instance, the rats which prey on native ground-nesting birds must go, as must the sheep and feral pigs, which denude the hillsides. What this ...
