Description
An account of the resource
Ota talks more about his childhood in Washington and being able to travel around the state playing sports. He would enjoy playing basketball at the YMCA the most and would continue to help his dad working at the hotels they owned. During the summers, he would head to Alaska to work at a salmon cannery, earning money while he attended the University of Washington. Next, he talks about his whereabouts during the attacks on Pearl Harbor, hearing it on the radio. Shortly after, they would be forcefully evacuated from their homes and moved to Puyallup assembly center, where the living conditions were poor and there was very little privacy. After this, they would get moved to Minidoka concentration camp in Idaho before volunteering for the Army and being inducted at Fort Douglas.
