Even in late 1944, we still lost some battles. http://www.abajournal.com/magazine/december_18_1944/ August |

Thanks for that August. Internment, practised by most of the Allies, was a pretty pointless and generally counter-productive 'war-efforts' - as seen here. |

Thank you August -- I have over the years known several friends whose parents were robbed of their property and locked up in those prison camps both in the U. S. (Manzanar) and in Canada which did the same thing. Loyal Americans and Canadians mostly, both before and after their WW2 experiences, even though they had worked very hard to accumulate what was stolen from them. A shameful moment in U. S. history -- I know of no evidence at all that these people were ever any threat to national security... |

I just did some editing of an interview with a NJ school teacher. I was unaware that Japanese americans were sent all the way to NJ from California during the war. She taught several Japanese-American students in her classes. She said they were all model students and nice as could be, never heard a single complaint about their situation, it was really fascinating. All the while her husband was fighting in the Pacific. |
