Photocopy of a declassified handwritten letter from Eva Koyama, daughter of Teru and Keizaburo Koyama, to Edward J. Ennis, Director, Enemy Alien Control Unit. Eva writes that she loves and misses her father greatly, but that she also thinks of the other girls her age whose fathers are currently serving in the military, so she can take the separation. She asks that her father be sent to Minidoka where she's at. She is adamant that her family not be sent to Tule Lake as they are loyal Americans.
