Yokohama Engineering Depot in Sagami. My dad was there for a bit before the move to the procurement agency in Tokyo. His official designation was "mechanical parts inspector."
Later he helped buy steel, wood products, paper and some other items from mostly Japanese and Korean firms. We also got to visit Viet Nam, Cambodia, Thailand and Laos. Dad had a friend who knew the Lao royals and we thought we might move to Laos or Thailand to be in the paper mill business. My mom and I took French language courses in anticipation of this move but we moved back Stateside in '61.
