Cut the interviewer some slack. He may be new to this and in the interest of detail and chronology is asking the question’s from notes just a a pilot might go through a procedural checklist to avoid overlooking things of importance. Also a interview is done in a totally different setting than a casual bullshit session. The subject May forget to mention things due to feeling put on the spot so to speak. My Uncles talked More of their combat experiences when in a casual setting. Those who have never experienced combat should be careful not to be judgemental or to second guess. Very often time constraints that may leave a subject feeling pressed can cause mental blocks and consequently omitted facts and stories . Jumping forward and then backward due to recall abilities can be just as confusing for listener’s as it is for the subject who will feel pressured and uncomfortable for not meeting the expectation’s of the interviewer and audience. A subject may feel inadequate or as having failed if after a interview , they recall a interesting story or fact that they did not mention. In conversation’s with My friends Relatives and now Son and Nephew bits and pieces here and there come together and like a draft of a script can latter be clarified and refined to become more understandable. A subject wanting to develop the character of a person in their story , their relationship etc. can risk being thought of as tangential and boring listener’s with short attention spans . A subjects enthusiasm for telling their stories can vary from one time to another. Participants in the same battle often just yards apart can have very different recollections of it.
I do not know the situation with the interviewer. but IMHO he asked the most stupid questions "what was the commerical carrier that took you to Vietnam?" not everyone is retired, therefore we only have a certain amount of free time. maybe the interviewer is trying to stretch the length of the interview??
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and thoughts ❤️
Enjoyed the whole interview

Thank you sir for your service 😢
I played lacrosse in college for Hampden Sydney’s arch rival and went to Hopkins lacrosse camps run by Coach Cicarrone.
Why are you asking such detailed information about their family?
I know...its like so some crazy person can find them 😂
Identity stealers know where to get easy targets. Smh
Why is the interviewer always louder than the interviewee ??This happens all the time
I noticed this too. Something with the audio. If I turn my phone sideways, then it switches to hearing the interviewer n not the interviewee.

1922 really.
If only the current POTUS had half the mental acuity of Mr. Kim.
