Description
Kazuo Komoto talks about performing guard duty over an aircraft plant in California, and how a newspaper picture of Nisei's guarding the plant created some issues with the local community. Next, he discusses his transfer to Camp Savage and the negative feelings that other Nisei had with being rounded up into a segregated unit, and his refusal to buy war bonds. Lastly, he recounts the graduation ceremony from the Military Intelligence Language School, and not being able to see his parents at Gila River because of security restrictions.
