District 2 Barrack 46 Unit 21 Avenue 6/Santa Anita Assembly Center/Arcadia, California/August 10, 1942/Dear Miss Breed,/You have by now read about the presence of military police here in camp. They were here Tuesday afternoon to Friday afternoon. The only people working were those in the mess division and certain sections of the maintenance and recreation department. Even U.S. Mail was at a standstill./What a sad surprise I received when mail was resumed. I had a letter from dad saying that he had received notice of internment for the duration. There is a chance of reopening his case. In order to do so he requires an affidavit of conduct. I am enclosing his letter. I would greatly appreciate it if you are able to see Mr. Kabler of the Pacific Coast Barber Supply.
