Description
Scope/Content: Diary of George Fujimoto, Jr., a young Japanese American man from Riverside, California. Entries begin on June 19 (page 188) and describe Fujimoto's return to his family's farm in Riverside and adjustment to civilian life after his World War II experiences (incarceration at Poston Relocation Center, relocation to Iowa, and U.S. Army service). In September 1946, Fujimoto enrolled at the University of California, Davis as an undergraduate transfer student to study poultry husbandry. Entries from September to December describe his academic and social experiences as a student, and a visit to celebrate holidays with family in Riverside at the end of December.
