Description
Full title:Even army life in war time has its happy moments. Witness Sgt. Joe Nikei, Nisei veteran from Hawaii, being entertained at the Inouye home near San Jose by (left to right) Marcella, Betty, and Elsie Inouye. Sgt. Nikei is presently stationed at nearby Monterey. When the camera man arrived he was the center of the admiring bevy of recently arrived evacuees. The Inouyes are from Gila. They have been dribbling back for a month. At latest count, most of the family was accounted for. Heading the clan are Kennosuke, 75, and his wife, 69, their children, Hisajiro and Elsie, Mrs. Hisajiro (Takeyo) and their youngsters, Marcella, Betty, Gordon, and Wright. Paul is a recent inductee in the army. The Inouye family is camping on their own ranch at Route 2, Box 506, San Jose, while waiting for tenants to move out of their bungalow home. Elsie is employed as a nurse at Alum Rock Sanitarium here. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru San Jose, California.
