Built on Indian land, Poston was the largest of all ten relocation centers. It was divided into three parts, officially known as Poston I, II, and III. Five thousand workers on a double work shift constructed the camps in record time. In fact, one builder boasted that they had erected sixteen barracks in twenty-two minutes! Due to a shortage of wood, barracks were built with green pine that shrank and left cracks between the boards, allowing sand and insects to seep and creep inside. The heat was so extreme that standard army barracks were redesigned with double roofs for insulation. But even double roofs did not block the oppressive heat. No guard towers were built at Poston since the location was “in the middle of nowhere” and towers were considered unnecessary. Part A

Which best sums up the image of the relocation centers conveyed by the newsreel?

They were comfortable and luxurious.
