註釋Transcript of an interview conducted by Darren Timothy on 6 Dec. 1985 for the Ray Hillam military history project. Hughes was from Spanish Fork, Utah, and his father worked for the FBI. Robert Hughes joined the Marine Corps officer's program in 1967 and was sent to serve with the infantry in Vietnam. He later served with motor transportation in Vietnam. He was in Vietnam in 1968 and 1969 and went on many search-and-destroy missions. Hughes told about hardships in being away from home. He said some of his friends were killed, and he was grateful to be alive. He also said that the teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints helped him have peace of mind. He believed that the war was justified to protect the rights of the family, and he believed the United States could have won the war if it had tried harder.
