It documents actual wartime administrative custody, not a criminal conviction. Initial arrest, admission, final release and completed detention duration remain unverified.
The individually named entry appears on roster sheet 5, row 1, with historical serial stem WJ-18. The table labels Camp McCoy as the place of detention and marks the internment category “Permanently.” That word is an administrative classification in this dated roster, not a measured term or proof of lifelong detention. Its “transferred from” column names Fort McDowell; no transfer day is printed.
May 1, 1942 is the roster’s observation date. It is not entered as a first arrest or admission date. The roster’s civilian-internment classification does not establish guilt, a particular political affiliation, ethnicity, citizenship, birth date or gender. No current imprisonment is inferred from this historical document.
