Braceros, viewed from a military barrack, wait at the Monterrey Processing Center, Mexico.
description: While taking pictures of braceros at the Monterrey Control Station, photographer Leonord Nadel decided to climb atop a nearby military barrack in order to take this picture of the assembled braceros. A group of Mexican soldiers, however, saw him and promptly arrested him for not having received permission to take pictures. The language barrier between them prevented communication, and Nadel said he was "surrounded by carbines" until a camp official managed to rescue him from his predicament.

Braceros spend their leisure time eating and resting in a living quarter near McAllen, Texas.
description: On a Texas farm, 200 braceros, stacked like drygoods, share a long, shed-like building with double-deck canvas beds. Such close living conditions cause respiratory illnesses among the braceros. Original Caption: A flimsy barracks, by turns drafty or stifling, is the housing provided by a Texas farmer for his braceros. The only mattress on the double-decker bunks is a sheet of canvas. Crowded living conditions like these result in a high incidence of respiratory illness among the braceros. (Jubilee: A Magazine for the Church and Her People, April 1957, p. 40.)
