Description
Muroshige describes his return to U.S. Mainland after being wounded in battle in Italy, learning about the War's end in the hospital, and gradual reintegration into civilian life. He speaks extensively about the good qualities of his wife and children as well as the pleasant 18 years spent on the plantation of his wife's employer - a widow who was very kind and became like family. He also describes his good fortune to find a desk job working for the Federal Government repairing office machinery which utilized his vocational training and allowed him to stay off his feet after being wounded in battle.
