Allowed?! They WERE the enemy of the Allied forces in WWII. Japan was trying to take over the entire Pacific and that is the primary reason for their bombing Pearl Harbor. They had been in peace talks with the U.S. Government, obviously attempting to misdirect the attention of politicians. It almost worked.
Japanese-Americans in World War 2Perhaps the questioner wants to know if Japanese Americans were allowed to serve in the US armed forces. This is from an article in the San Francisco Chronicle which is available at the related link:
Classified as 4-C Enemy Aliens whose loyalty to the U.S. government was deemed questionable after the 1941 bombing of Pearl Harbor, Japanese Americans were ineligible to serve in the armed forces. But in February 1943, the government created a special all-Japanese unit, with Japanese enlisted men and Caucasian officers.
As a military unit, their record in North Africa and Europe was extraordinary. After almost two years of fighting, the 100th/442nd emerged from the war the most highly decorated unit in U.S. military history.
They fought in seven major campaigns in Europe, made two beachhead assaults and captured a submarine. In France, they liberated Bruyeres, and rescued the ``Lost Battalion'' -- 275 Texas infantrymen who had been trapped inside German territory for almost a week.
In late spring of 1945, the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion -- part of the 442nd -- was among the first Allied units to liberate prisoners from Dachau. Days later, heading farther south through Germany, the 522nd helped save more than 5,000 Jewish prisoners from the Dachau sub-camps who had been on a forced march toward the Bavarian Alps.
The unit's valor earned more than 18,000 individual citations and eight Presidential Unit Citations. Known also as the ``Purple Heart Battalion,'' with more than 700 men killed and 9,500 Purple Hearts, they suffered the highest casualty rate in U.S. Army history.
