The semblance of measured serenity and daily life dissolved, and suddenly America shifted itself into the mindset of a nation attacked, a nation at war. But behind the pure strains of patriotism loomed a different conflict. Struggling to identify its allies and opponents, the U.S. Government incarcerated Pacific Coast Japanese-American citizens in internment camps - a decision that has been questioned and hotly debated in the 60-some years since WWII. Here are the personal stories of Japanese-Americans in the Pacific Northwest who were affected by internment and military service in WWII. Featuring exclusive interviews with survivors of this historic event, archival footage of WWII and the critical insights of recognized historians, "IN TIME OF WAR" tells the intimate stories of Japanese-Americans living the legacy of war.
