The Prisons
"Your domination of the Orient is gone forever!...It is regrettable that we were unable to kill each of you on the battlefield. It is only through our generosity that you are alive at all...Your country has forgotten your name. Your loved ones no longer weep for you. You are forever the enemy of Japan."
- Captain Tsuneyoshi, 1941
As if the pain and suffering the Death March caused wasn't enough, the Japanese did their best to do their worst to the Americans within these prison camps. So many of these men, sons, husbands and fathers were never going to see their loved ones again. No one would come out of these prisons unscathed. No one would come out of these prisons unscarred.
