First volunteer in the Territory of Hawaii to take the oath of induction into the U.S. Army Combat Regiment being organized for Americans of Japanese ancestry, Mitsuru Doi, eighteen, of Lihue, Kauai, pledges allegiance to the United States as Major Charles V. McManus, adjutant of the Kauai Service Command administers the oath. Doi was born at Loloa, but lived in Lihue and worked as station attendant at the Kapaia Garage. He applied for voluntary induction on January 30, two days after Washington announced formation of the combat unit. "I'm going to be a darn good soldier," Doi said after taking the oath. "I'm just waiting to begin training and get into action."
