DescriptionA woman in a cross-patterned shirt, Mine Okubo, holds her nose as she walks past the camp sewage system repair site. An older, spectacled man and woman walk in front of her in the center foreground, also holding their noses. Three workmen in hats dig trenches around the barracks. Dirt is piled beside trenches and planks are positioned across them to allow for crossing between barracks.;1 drawing on paper : ink ; image 9.75 x 14.5 in.
