H
shaped
building
in each
block
.
Separate

.
One
section
was
set
aside for use as a
laundry
area
with
concrete
wash
tubs
and
scrub
boards
. The
communal
bathrooms
created
many
problems
for the
evacuees

areas
for
men
had no
partitions
while the
women
had only
partial
partitions
and no
doors
. Going from their
barrack
rooms
to use the
facilities
during
the
middle
of the
night
during
snowstorms
,
rainstorms
,
and/or
sandstorms
were
experiences
the
evacuees
never
forgot
. It was particularly
difficult
for the
elderly
and the
disabled
.
