Mechanic, United States Army Adviser, Psychological Operations, Army Intelligence Processed Incoming Vietnamese Refugees in Guam Abstract Summary of the oral history. Raymond T. Baza recounts his experiences processing the first group of 7,000 refugees from Vietnam, about five or six hundred "Operation Baby Lift" infants, to a camp in Guam, an unincorporated and organized territory of the United States which temporarily hosted 100,000 Vietnamese in 1975. Baza, who identifies as Chamorro, was drafted into the Unites States Army, first as a mechanic and later in an advisory capacity in what he describes as Psychological Operations for Army Intelligence. He married a Vietnamese woman who rescued him from being captured in Vietnam and assisted him with his injuries. He discusses the resettlement of the refugees; some left the island to countries like the United States through Operation New Life, some settled on the island and some returned to Vietnam. Raymond also discusses the previous generation's experiences during the occupation of the island by Japan during WWII and how the Chamorros, the native peoples of the island, accepted the new arrivals from Vietnam. The people of Guam had the highest per capita deaths in Vietnam. Themes Descriptions of the themes or topics discussed during the oral history interview.
