Gerard Joe participated in an oral history interview conducted by Dr. John MacFarlane for the Directorate of History and Heritage's History of Aboriginal Peoples in the Canadian Military project. The interview was conducted on 03/07/2001 via telephone between Ottawa and Conne River, NF. The interview begins with Joe discussing the culturally unique aspects of growing up on a Micmac Reserve, such as knowledge, use of land, and food, and relationships with Micmac from other provinces. He also recalls his father's military experience and how the military was viewed by his community. Joe joined the military September 1980 and was deployed to Lahr, West Germany, as a field engineer. He highlights the differences between Canadian, American, British, and French troops. He is asked to comment on the references to WWII he saw while in Germany and the thoughts they invoked. The interview concludes with comments on adjustment to life back home and the influence of the military on his life.
