    Internment was a bit complicated, but my understanding is that the US army wouldn’t turn away young Japanese-American men who were willing to fight in Europe.

    Japanese-Americans (and Korean-Americans as ‘enemy nationals’) largely served in segregated units during the war, unlike other Asian-Americans.
