Introduction

Al Tracy

This part of the "history series" will be expanded in the future. The reason for this is that both James Mitose and his Mother were spies for the U.S. government and as such they were sworn to secrecy. For this reason and several even more important reasons they could never tell us who they were or anything about their families in Japan.

To give you a hint of why they could not tell us anything.

"You have relatives in the oldcountry'?

I am going to just write one short paragraph from the book
"Honor by Fire"
Japanese Americans at War in Europe and the Pacific

This short paragraph will give you and idea of what willfollow!

Quote from General Tokin - US Army

hotel near airport Turin"I want to tell you about the six thousand Japanese-American linguist of the Military Intelligence Service (MIS) nick named misers, who were on every embattled island of the Pacific, fought with Merrill's Marauders through the jungles of Burma, assisted the opposing forces of Mao Tse-tung and Chung Kai-shek in China, worked in Pentagon offices to track changes in Japan's naval and army forces, and interpreted top-secret decoded messages between Germany and Japan. Salzburg hotel roomsThe U.S. government pledged these Japanese Americans of the Military Intelligence Service to secrecy, which endured for more than a quarter century after World War II ended, so few know of their contributions."

End of quote!

It is very obvious that the role James Mitose and his family played din the period  of time was very important t - because mush of their records are still sealed! All other record were open to the public in 1970. Not so for James Mitose - This is why even on his dearth bed he would never give any information about his family and when he did it was either miss-leading or false. The only thing the authorities knew was his mothers name was "Kiyoko"
