He does not wish to be interned so that he can be with his father. Like him, William turned down being repatriated to Japan. He states that he is a member of the Boy Scouts of America and is currently training Cub Scouts in Minidoka. He previously helped harvest sugar beets and would continue to do so if he had a chance as it would help towards the war effort.","extent":"1 photocopy: 8.50 W x 14 H","links_children":"ddr-one-5-167","creators":[{"role":"author","namepart":"Koyama, William K."}],"topics":[{"term":"World War II -- Family reunification","id":"527"}],"format":"doc","language":["eng"],"persons":[{"namepart":"Koyama, William K."},{"namepart":"Koyama, Keizaburo"},{"namepart":"Boy Scouts of America"}],"contributor":"Japanese American Museum of Oregon; Portland, Oregon","rights":"cc","genre":"correspondence","location":"Hunt, Idaho","facility":[{"term":"Minidoka","id":"8"},{"term":"Camp Livingston","id":"55"}],"creation":"04/19/1942","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Koyama, William K. author Koyama, William K. \nKoyama, Keizaburo \nBoy Scouts of America","download_large":"ddr-one-5-167-mezzanine-a48b95998a-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-pc-18-1","model":"entity","index":"23 4748/{'value': 5019, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-pc-18-1/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-pc-18-1/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-pc-18/ddr-pc-18-1-mezzanine-d918f20d11-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-pc-18/ddr-pc-18-1-mezzanine-d918f20d11-a.jpg"},"title":"The Pacific Citizen, Vol. 22 No. 1 (January 5, 1946)","description":"Selected article titles: \"JACL Protests 'Mistreatment' of Nisei Combat Veterans at Southern California Army Camp\" (p. 1), \"Marine Corps Opens Ranks To Japanese American Group\" (p. 1), \"Nisei Accepted by Navy as Ban Lifted\" (p. 1), \"Ickes Favors Compensation for Evacuee Losses\" (p. 1), \"Federal Court Delays Action On Tamura Deportation Case; Renunciant Will Get Hearing\" (p. 2), \"WRA to Close Field Offices In Six Cities\" (p. 2), \"Hawaii Citizens Challenge Immigration Department's Discrimination in U.S. Travel\" (p. 3), \"U.S. Court Upsets Conviction of Fair Play Committee Group\" (p. 3), \"Tell People Not to Come to Japan, Uncle Tells Seaman\" (p. 7), \"WRA to Return Articles Taken From Aliens\" (p. 7), \"Race Relations Group Hits Restrictive Housing Policies\" (p. 8).","extent":"Pacific Citizen","links_children":"ddr-pc-18-1","creators":[{"role":"publisher","namepart":"The Japanese American Citizens League"}],"format":"doc","language":["eng"],"contributor":"Pacific Citizen","rights":"cc","genre":"periodical","location":"Salt Lake City, Utah","creation":"January 5, 1946","status":"completed","search_hidden":"The Japanese American Citizens League publisher","download_large":"ddr-pc-18-1-mezzanine-d918f20d11-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-pc-19-18","model":"entity","index":"24 4749/{'value': 5019, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-pc-19-18/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-pc-19-18/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-pc-19/ddr-pc-19-18-mezzanine-5304aef458-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-pc-19/ddr-pc-19-18-mezzanine-5304aef458-a.jpg"},"title":"The Pacific Citizen, Vol. 24 No. 17 (May 3, 1947)","description":"Selected article titles: \"Nisei Pilot Gives Life in Georgia Crash.
