He was on the USS Missouri, a retired battleship. He had presented us a slideshow he made, which he is also talking about the Japanese American experience during WW2. Everything changed when Japan and US got into war. He also talked about how the Japanese got transferred from the states California, Washington, and Oregon to other states and sent to internment camps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Japanese-Americans were thought of as \u201cuntrustworthy\u201d and \u201cunassailable\u201d! Japanese-Americans in Hawaii made up 40-60 percent of the workforce! Then, everything changed on December 7, 1941 with Pearl Harbor. Japanese-Americans were not thought of as morally good people UNTIL the creation of the 442nd infantry. It was an awesome presentation! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neil is so kind and we learned a lot of things. This is amazing!
