Vincent Caruana and his family had left Senglea for the safety of Siggiewi in June 1940 when the first Italian air raids had been carried out. He described the evacuation process and resettlement in a new village in the countryside with emotion and lucidity. He was later conscripted into the Royal Malta Artillery (R.M.A.) and also talked about his time in the army, the shelters, the internees, the arrival of the Pedestal convoy and the capitulation of Italy.

In the second part of the interview, Vincent 'Censinu' Caruana continued by talking about the lack of contact with British servicemen and the numerous colonial soldiers which were stationed in the Island. He described the air raids, Operation Pedestal and the Convoy of Santa Marija and his demobilisation from the army.

In the fourth part of the interview, Vincent 'Censinu' Caruana continued by mentioning the arrival of the convoys to Malta, the arrival of Spitfire aircraft and the heavy resistance the anti-aircraft gunners had put up against the German and Italian bombers. He explained how Fascist Italy had surrendered on 8th September 1943 - the day of Our Lady of Victories - and finished by mentioning the Victory Kitchens.
