Note
Full title:Mrs. Busuke Saito, mother of three sons on the U.S. Army, is shown in the garden of their family home at 705 E. Street, Fresno, California, to which she and her husband returned on May 19, from the Granada Relocation Center, Amache, Colorado. The sons in service are Sgt. Leo Saito, who recently returned from the Pacific theatre of war and is now stationed at Fort Snelling, Minnesota; Pvt. Isamu Saito and Cpl. Tom Saito, who are stationed in Army camps in the states. For about 30 years prior to evacuation, the Saitos were operators of the Fresno Fish Market but feel that they will be unable to resume the same business until one of their sons return from service. Mrs. Saito says she is very happy to be home again. Mr. Saito was not home at the time the photographer arrived, therefore, is not in the picture.<lb /> Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru<lb /> Fresno, California.
