Department of Justice Internment Camps

Eight internment camps run by the Department of Justice held Japanese Americans. Three of these were in Texas, two were in New Mexico, and one each was in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota. Most of these facilities held only men, but Segoville in Texas housed single women and families, and Crystal City, also in Texas, held families. Kooskia, in Idaho, was a highway construction camp. All of these facilities were guarded by Border Patrol agents, rather than military police as at the relocation and assembly centers.
