Correspondence from Miriko Nagahama to Betty Salzman, May 16, 1945

Personal letter describing Nagahama's experience thus far at the National Training School, where she is studying to become a kindergarten teacher, and her appreciation of hearing about their "gang" of friends. Nagahama gives news of Hideo [Watanabe] and mentions that Honey [Toda] is now working as an administrative assistant at the University of Maryland and will be visiting upon returning from a trip to the "Manzanar Relocation Center." She also encourages Salzman to resume her college studies, saying that a college education will prove more beneficial after the war than if Salzman were to continue on with Lockheed as an instrument technician.
