My name is Greg.
I live in Arizona.
I was watching T.V.
and I heard about a
bombing on Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii. Soon many
days went by, and all
I heard was bad news.
My ancestors were Japanese.
But I was an American
born child. Soon I heard
many Japanese people
were being put into
Concentration Camps,
in the desert. One day,
a group of 20 soldiers
came to our town and took
me and my mother. I looked
around and felt alone.
My mother was next to me,
but I felt as if I was unguarded,
and vulnerable to anything,
and anyone. Soldiers surrounded
me and brought us to the
same camps I had heard
about on the radio and T.V.
I felt helpless, and frustrated
by all the sadness that I was
surrounded by. I tried to talk
to my mother I was pulled away.
cried and screamed for her.
I lost her, she was gone.
And there was no one with
me, It was all........ gone.
