The individually named entry appears on roster sheet 3, row 8, with historical serial stem 9-34-G-15. 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. The earlier transfer location is explicitly marked unknown.
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 No current imprisonment is inferred from this historical document.
