The persecution of the Native Indians, Jews, Japanese and many others. How can man be so cruel to another human being?<br />Happy Trails, Penny, TXLakeConroePenny,TXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260039376684295639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-1518133656875508762011-03-12T12:00:41.694-05:002011-03-12T12:00:41.694-05:00Thanks for the very interesting & GREAT post! ...Thanks for the very interesting & GREAT post!

Just a few of those "Camp 21" type signs and the old foundations, etc. We are now planning our late Spring trip, and will probably go along 395 on our way to Carson City to pay respects to the good American citizens we locked up there for so long.<br /><br />Thanks for agreeing with our suggestion for the header picture, but I'll bet you had that in mind anyway!Jerry and Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01381487159402842587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-7389727813306051432011-03-12T09:52:55.680-05:002011-03-12T09:52:55.680-05:00I lived near the Heart Mountain Relocation Camp ne...I lived near the Heart Mountain Relocation Camp near Powell, WY before I married Michael--very moving to walk around these old camps and relive an embarrassing moment in US history!Janna and Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07591282756244454689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-88991706535712452112011-03-12T07:38:08.724-05:002011-03-12T07:38:08.724-05:00Nice Blog Al, enjoyed it.

The pictures you took so enhanced the story in the blog.<br /><br />The smithsonian in Washington, DC had an exhibit several years back, with a recreation of the living quarters. Many japanese who were in the camp said it was an accurate model of how things were. They certainly lived in cramped quarters!<br /><br />One of the best photos i've ever seen is one you may have noticed when you were there, It's of a very old man and a very young child with tags hanging on their coats. They were tagged like cattle!Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-91462299267911978262011-03-12T00:33:51.214-05:002011-03-12T00:33:51.214-05:00We went to the Heart Mountain Relocation Camp outs...We went to the Heart Mountain Relocation Camp outside of Cody, WY. Not much left but they were working on a visitor's center that I would like to go back to. Such a sad time in our history. And such very courageous people. They are really going to need to call upon that courage now.Jim and Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108729200561576870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-58473410046272314522011-03-12T00:22:26.795-05:002011-03-12T00:22:26.795-05:00Sad reminder of that time.
