With COVID-19 precautions in place, historian Joe Todd has been unable to conduct interviews with veterans. This is story is based on an interview with veteran and former prisoner of war Edwin Curtis Yeary, which Todd conducted on Nov. 26, 2000, in Ponca City.
Dr. Edwin Curtis Yeary was born Jan. 7, 1916, in Elmore City in Garvin County to Edwin Hannibal and Ruth Alice (McCandless) Yeary. He graduated from Elmore High school in 1933 and entered the University of Oklahoma. He went through medical school and and received his M.D. in 1939. While at OU, he joined the Army Reserves.
He set his medical practice up in Ponca City in 1939, but was called to active duty in 1940 and sent to Brooks Army Hospital in San Antonio for training. While Yeary was in San Antonio, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, and he didn’t know what to think. The people in San Antonio were uneasy after the attack and uncertain about what was going to happen.
