Some time ago, I read that of the over 14000 who were interred, over 11000 held dual citizenship who openly and vigorously opposed the American policy after Dec. 7, 1941. In fact so many applied for exit visas to return to Japan, that the gov't. was compelled to pass new legislation regarding the application for and issuance of exit visas during wartime. Maybe someone could remind me of the article.

Don't know about that article, but it was 'way more than 14,000 interned (not "interred" - that's "buried").
