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.

Vincent Caruana was conscripted into the Royal Malta Artillery (R.M.A.) in August 1941. In his second interview, he discussed how and where he had to report, his training and, among other things, the soldiers' and gunners' rations.
