You're right, Pam, it is terrible the story is not known. In the case of the Japanese, they were kept in specific locations during the war, and let go to return to their homes and lives. Many young Japanese fought in WWII (on our side). There were photos, and stories told by the returnees. The Roswell and Manchester women were primarily illiterate, and lived in a time when women were not generally paid any public attention. They were disbursed and forced to fend for themselves, apparently on an individual basis. And, except for a small number, they did not return home. Those who did failed to leave any record of their tribulations. My great uncle's story is known because of his pension application. Finally, the winners wrote the history, and they were not proud of this part of that history. Stan
