“除了极其艰难的勉强求生
"knowing nothing about what
was going on in the world
“他对世界上发生的事
"except that it was
a terrible struggle
一无所知”
to just barely survive."
艾尔.麦金托什《罗克县星报》
Al McIntosh, Rock County
Star-Herald.
战争期间明尼苏达州罗克县
More than 1,000 citizens
of Rock County, Minnesota,
有1千多人在军中服役
served in uniform
during the war.
32人失去了他们的生命
32 of them lost their lives.
所有军人的名字被仔细的写在
The names of all those who
served were carefully painted
卢温市政厅前的一个木制荣誉榜上
on a wooden roll of honor in
front of city hall in Luverne.
岁月荏苒明尼苏达的冬天销蚀了这些名字
As the years passed, Minnesota
winters wore away the names.
有一年纪念牌被拆下
One year, the monument
was taken down
重新粉刷和修复
to be repainted and repaired.
却不知何故不见了
Somehow, it was lost.
我们希望开始新的生活
Our hope was
we were going to have a new life,
我还记得我们
and I remember driving up
on the day
开车去牧场那天
that we drove through
to the ranch.
萨沙.魏茨海默加州萨克拉门托河谷
那就像在“爱丽丝漫游奇境”里
And it was like being
in Alice in Wonderland.
太不可思议了
It was absolutely amazing.
萨沙.魏茨海默和家人
Sascha Weinzheimer
and her family,
在马尼拉身为日本人阶下囚几乎饿死
who had nearly starved to death as
prisoners of the Japanese in Manila,
后来在萨克拉门托河谷已故祖父的
settled on their late
grandfather's farm
农场里安顿下来
in the Sacramento Valley.
这又像一场文化冲击
It was some sort of,
um, cultural shock coming back,
因为你的身体在这里心灵却不在
because your body's here,
but your mind isn't.
还必须忍♥受住在这里的
And to have to put up
with the stupidity
一些美国人的蠢话
of some of the Americans
that have been living here.
他们走进屋里就说
They'd walk into a room
“跟我们说说你的经历吧”
and say, "Oh, tell us
about your experience."
然后他们马上会说
And then immediately they'd say,
“呃我们有这些
"Um, we had these coupons
“定量配给的供应券
"that had to be, you know,
uh, rationed,
所以我们不能去这里因为没汽油”
and then we couldn't go here
because of the gasoline."
因此我们只能尽量逃避
And so we just sort
of avoided everything.
当人们要谈我们的经历时
And when people were talking
to us about our experience,
我们就沉默不语
we just clammed up,
因为..反正他们也不想听
because it... they didn't want
to hear it, anyway.
萨克拉门托在战时从一个小镇首府
Sacramento's
wartime transformation
永久性的变成了一个大城市
from small-town state capital to
big city would prove permanent.
州政♥府♥也变大了
State government grew, too.
随着世界大战最终被冷战所取代
So did the military bases
on Sacramento's outskirts
市郊的军事基地也扩大了
as the world war was eventually
supplanted by the cold war.
在返乡的萨克拉门托人当中
Among the Sacramentans
returning home
有数千名从内陆拘留营里
were thousands of
Japanese-Americans
刚刚重获自♥由♥的日裔美国人
newly freed from
the inland camps
他们被拘禁不因为别的
in which they had been
imprisoned
就因为他们的血统
for no other reason
than their ancestry.
他们努力追回自己的产业
They struggled to recover
their property
重塑自己的生活
and rebuild their lives.
442战斗联队100营的军人们也回来了
The men of the 100th 442nd
Combat Team came home, too.

我去商店的时候
When I showed up in the shop,
店里那个家伙去找他的工头
this one fellow from the floor
went to his foreman,
他说“嘿听着
he says, "Hey, look,"
如果日本人要在这工作我就走”
if that Jap is gonna work
here," he says, "I'm quitting."
这是那个工头告诉我的
And this foreman told me that.
我说“好吧我通过了面试
And I says, "Well, you know,
I passed my test

and I think I did

"what I was supposed to do, so
I'm going to hold my position
我想留在这里知道吗？”
and I'm going to remain here,
you know?"
我留下来了
And I did.
于是我留了下来他就辞职了
And so, as I remained
there, why, he quit.
然后随着时间过去一切慢慢变好了
And then everything turned
a little bit better
我越来越应付裕如
as time went on, and it got
easier and easier for me.
因此我可以任职32年后退休
And so I was able to serve
32 years and retire.
“对我来说乘火车回家是一次怀旧之旅

trip home was a nostalgic one for me.
“我当然是个自豪的美国人

of course,
但也是非常想家的南方人”

他径直来这里看我们

coming in with his uniform
and all of his ribbons and all.
我想天呐你真帅！

on their faces.
他们的面容改变了

looked like boys.
