  • 5,434 Japanese Americans, Nationals Fou...Hind Barbed Wire at Pomona
    Inland Valley Daily Bulletin (http://www.dailybulletin.com) Go Back Print Page 5,434 Japanese Americans, nationals found a temporary home behind barbed wire at Pomona fairgrounds By Joe Blackstock, Staff Writer Saturday, May 5, 2012 POMONA - Out in the west parking lot of Fairplex, where dragsters race and fair-goers park their SUVs, there's no trace of a once-bustling city of wood and tar paper, and tears. No monument marks the spot in Pomona - fittingly enough because it was a place best forgotten by those who lived there. At this site 70 years ago this week, Japanese-Americans and Japanese nationals were interned, or imprisoned, or evacuated - the appropriate verb will always be a matter of debate. Just five months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Pomona Assembly Center was opened on May 8, 1942, to house 5,434 Japanese while permanent camps for their internment were being built. All Southern California residents of Japanese descent, including American citizens, were ordered in March and April 1942 to dispose of homes, businesses, and most of their possessions and move to camps at the Pomona fairgrounds or at Santa Anita Race Track in Arcadia. Then, barely four months later, the Pomona center abruptly became a ghost town when its residents were loaded onto trains bound for remote places with names like Heart Mountain, Tule Lake and Manzanar. The ramshackle housing at Pomona was later used for U.S. troops and still later by Italian and German prisoners of war. Shortly after the war's end, it was all torn down.
