Description
[Camp Lee, Va. and various locations in and around Fukuoka, Japan, 1947. Very good.. Sixty-four vernacular photographs and five professional photographic postcards, between 2.25 x 2 inches and 8.75 x 11 inches, plus two documents and a canceled check. Minor occasional wear to images. A small but informative archive of photographs and documents pertaining to Private Fred N. Joyce's service in Occupied Japan at the conclusion of the Second World War. Joyce served in the Third Platoon of the 93rd Quartermaster Training Company, stationed at Camp Hakata in Kyushu, Japan. The two documents present here include a "Letter of Merit" given to Joyce while in training at Camp Lee, Virginia in August 1946 and his "Honorable Discharge," granted in November 1947. Between those dates, Joyce spent his short career in Japan, documented with over sixty candid shots, some of which are captioned in manuscript on the verso. The vernacular shots show a variety of subjects and settings including American serviceman on base at work and play (in both Virginia and Japan), portraits of Joyce's fellow soldiers, numerous street scenes in Japan (one manuscript caption reads, "One of the modern Jap theatres on Main Street in Fukuoka"), elevated views of the city of Fukuoka (one taken from the Red Cross Building), a shot of three Japanese "Janitors that work here in Battalion Headquarters" and other locals, an image of Joyce with several Japanese children (captioned on the verso, "'Me' and some other little 'Japs'"), and more. Three of the largest images present here are aerial photographs of Camp Hakata, one with numerous buildings captioned in manuscript in the image area and keyed to a printed list on the verso. The other larger photograph is a professional group photograph of Joyce's Third Platoon, with all members identified. Six commercial photographic postcards round out the collection, which depict scenes in Japan, with English printed captions beneath the images.
