Description(3) page letter on recto and verso to Masaji Iwate from Tatsumi Iwate at QM Detachment Camp Carson, Colorado, on August 30, 1942. Tatsumi writes that American Japanese soldiers are getting the worst deal but complaints won't bring forth an ounce of improvement, the work schedule is seven days a week, about how th ey are told that thousands of soldiers are enduring hardship much tougher at the front but they don't send Japanese-Americans out to see the hardship, anger at treating Japanese-Americans as enemy prisoners, that he hates dictatorship and Japanese militarism but he will be darned if he likes democracy only in word, had a surprise when a 16-year old girl, Kay Kubo, sent him a letter on behalf of their mutual friend, Manjo.
