Description(3) page letter to Mas Iwate from Tatsumi Iwate at HQ Detachment DEML, Camp Crowder, Missouri, on June 14, 1942. Tatsumi writes that he wises he was in Kansas City because they don't censor the mail unless letters are coming from a concentration camp, that everywhere he has been the weather gets screwy, that if American Japanese get into combat, those 'Democracy loving' citizens will get no protection from him and that he's beginning to hate California, he questions what they are fighting for like injustice and inequality, that Mari is going to move out to Tule Lake, shares Jack Wada's address at Manzanar.
