Border Patrol agents of the Immigration and Naturalization Service operated the Department of Justice camps, located at former migrant worker and Civilian Conservation Corps camps, military bases, and prisons. Some facilities housed men only, women only, or married couples and women with children. Camp conditions varied widely, from bleak and harsh to Spartan but livable.<\/p>\n

Acts of dissent as well as misinformation and disinformation in the mismanaged maximum-security Tule Lake Segregation Center (California) led 5,461 Nisei to renounce their U.S. citizenship. (In contrast, only 128 persons from the other War Relocation Authority camps renounced.)\u00a0 Renunciants<\/a> from Tule Lake were treated as \u201cenemy aliens\u201d and nearly 2,000 were sent to Department of Justice camps in Santa Fe (New Mexico), Fort Lincoln (North Dakota), and Crystal City (Texas).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp”]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]Initially, many of the deportees from Latin America were held on Army bases and former prisons, such as the state penitentiary at Stringtown (Oklahoma), a flea-infested, over-crowded prison where the water ran brown from the taps.<\/p>\n

The larger of two camps designated for families with young children, Crystal City Internment Camp was the Department of Justice\u2019s largest multi-national family camp, with a peak population of about 4,000. Hundreds of babies were born, and some internees died. One of this camp\u2019s key functions was preparing internees for hostage exchange. Children attended schools taught in Japanese, German, or English. In the Japanese and German schools, language and culture were taught to prepare the children for life in Japan or Germany.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight”]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]Often at great emotional cost, internees conducted daily life behind barbed-wire fences, klieg lights, and watch towers patrolled by armed guards with dogs. Adults strove to keep their families together through the routines of sports, school, music, arts, and community events. Thus, while many internees who were children at the time recall mostly pleasant memories of camp life, the adults and teenagers acutely felt all the realities associated with the trauma of imprisonment. Young adults missed out on education and career opportunities. Having lost the fruits of a lifetime of labor and facing an uncertain future, many adults suffered depression, listlessness, and despair. Many had grown children in the U.S. military, fighting overseas for a country that had locked up their parents.<\/p>\n

Mail was restricted and heavily censored, with no drawings, erasures, or references to movements of internees or to the enemy nation allowed. For those in camps far from home, visitors were rare. Most of the internees were men separated from their families and loved ones. Army restrictions for internees tended to be even more severe than those imposed by the INS. Internees were housed in tents with wooden floors, four to a tent. Most were given POW uniforms to wear. They could have only two 25-minute visits per month, with all visits monitored. Any lapse into the \u201cenemy language\u201d was forbidden. Internees were paid as little as10 cents a day for chores they were required to perform.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]Many internees spent their days appealing to the government for release. Their pleas for re-hearings were generally ignored. When the government persistently asked whether they wanted to repatriate to Germany, Japan, or Italy, some grudgingly accepted this alternative to indefinite internment. Some were threatened with the denial of family reunification unless they agreed to repatriation. Some were offered the chance to work outside the camps, such as on railroad construction. Most preferred the hard labor to the boredom of incarceration.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”667″ img_size=”378×500″ alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https:\/\/njahs.org\/enemy-alien-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Letter-from-Edgar-Friede.jpg”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight” css=”.vc_custom_1669238824756{margin-top: -20px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]While the three nationalities usually got along, there was periodic inter- and intra-ethnic tension in some camps, due to political, cultural, and language differences. Some hard-core German loyalists in the camps quarreled with and intimidated those with whom they disagreed politically. Jewish internees, unaccountably placed near pro-Nazi prisoners, were harassed and sometimes beaten. Pro- and anti-fascist factions among the Italians sometimes engaged in fights. Among Japanese internees, political and intergenerational disputes were amplified by conflicted feelings of national allegiance and the prospect of family separation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInLeft” css=”.vc_custom_1669239000354{margin-top: -20px !important;}”]\"Fort<\/p>\n
