Bill Orison Beaton (Primary Source)

In 2010, The Memory Project interviewed Bill Orison Beaton, a veteran of the Second World War, in Gibsons, British Columbia. The following recording (and transcript) is an excerpt from this interview. Born in Seattle, Washington, on 15 May 1923, Beaton enlisted in Santa Ana, California, in 1942 as a private in the American army; he was soon sent to flying school, however, and assigned to a heavy bomber group in Tucson, Arizona. In his testimony, Beaton describes his training in the United States Air Force. He experienced several emergencies and crashes, which led to the deaths of some of his crew members. Beaton never flew in combat but, he explains, his time in the air force was “a very exciting thing.” He moved to Canada in 1964.
