RP: Did your, going back to camp, did your in-laws work in camp?

AT: No. They, my father in-law was retired already so he didn't do any work. And my mother, mother in-law, I have a feeling she worked in that... what they... I don't know what you call it. What they make for protection.

RP: Camouflage nets?

AT: Yeah. I think she did. I'm not too sure. She was just worried about her son being in the service but he was with that language school so I don't think he ever went overseas.

RP: You're talking about Henry's brother?

AT: Yeah.

RP: Uh-huh.

AT: Uh-huh.

RP: And, he came to visit too at Manzanar?

AT: Yeah, he came couple a times, yeah.

RP: And was he an instructor at the language school?

AT: No, I think he, he couldn't have been, his Japanese would have been awful. Yeah.

RP: What was his name?

AT: James, Jimmy.

RP: Jimmy.

AT: Yeah.

RP: Did he Henry have other siblings besides James?

AT: No. Just the two of them. Yeah.

RP: Just the two. Was Henry involved at all in the effort to get redress?

AT: No. I think he was too busy with his own work.

RP: And how long did he work as a lawyer?

AT: Oh maybe, he was in his eighties. And he, actually he quit that. He was doing tax, you know all these farmers around here, they all needed help so he, I think he quit that around, in his nineties. But I told him to quit because I was helping him type those forms and so I thought it was time he took it easy.
