If they do have DRM (and I don't think the DOC files could but am not sure) then you'll have to deal with the DRM first.
Once Calibre will handle the files, you'll need to convert them to PRC for the Kindle to read them. However, my results with Calibre converting to PRC and trying to read on the Kindle were unsatisfactory - the font was too small and would not change sizes on the Kindle. I haven't tried with the latest version of Calibre yet. I prefer Mobipocket Creator but I don't think it will do batch jobs, i.e. you'd have to do them one at a time.

OK, they are not encrypted, but I need to convert them to PRC, no prob. Per you, don't use Calibre to convert to PRC, so I'll see if I can download a .doc/.pdf to PRC converter, gotta be one out there.
1.) Convert .doc/.pdf to PRC
2.) Put books back into Calibre
3.) Make titles/authors spiffy
..... Now what?
