1,237,000 not 12 million.

Read my post again and then read Wiki again. Eleven million people had one or both parents born in Germany, the German equivalent of a Nisei. Fewer than 12,000 were interned compared to over 100,000 from a much smaller population.

Did you have relatives in either camp? If so discuss it with
achilles2000, who had relatives in the internment camps.

“They weren’t imprisoned. They were told they couldn’t live in certain areas, and camps were for those who had no place else to go. They could leave the camps if they wanted, but they couldn’t go back to the prohibited zones (there’s a USSC case affirming that). Michelle Malkin wrote an interesting book on the issue of domestic Japanese and WWII. BTW, I have relatives who were in the camps.”
