Your pearls look very Akoya...cream, with a bit of pink. And I could detect that the pearls are not perfectly uniform, so it could be a strand purchased by a stationed US soldier.
I would find someone that would be able to discern nacre thickness by means of the drill-hole. If the pearl has a thickness of nacre around 0.5 mm it could very well be an old Akoya strand.
