Sinopsis

Late Japanese-American author and labor activist Karl G. Yoneda (1906-1999) was interned from March - November 1942 at Manzanar 'Relocation Center' in California?s Death Valley. On Dec 2nd he became one of 14 other internees from Manzanar who were accepted into the US Army?s special training program at the Military Intelligence Language School in Minnesota, where they would become specialists in Japanese language translation & interrogation and later dispatched to active duty in the Pacific Theater. In 1988 Karl published a Japanese version of his diary documenting the experience leading up to & during incarceration at Manzanar, then the following year in 1989 he published it?s sequel (also in Japanese), this 'MIS Soldier?s Diary' which documents his subsequent US Army service as a Japanese linguist in the China-Burma theater.This English translation has been prepared from the original Japanese 'Amerika Ichi Jouhou Heishi no Nikki' (????????????) with the permission of Karl?s three granddaughters, intended as an English-language sequel to his previously translated Manzanar Concentration Camp Diary.
