DESCRIPTION
Backside of postcard with cartoon of U.S. plane bombing Tokyo and an angry Japanese citizen reacting, saying "Ho! You cannot do this to me! I am the son of heaven! What the hell?" Postcard is addressed to "My dear brother Wendell Millermura" and describes the writer as "a member of the Christian Church," asking Miller, "Where should I send my donation for fireworks for the Japs to celebrate the fall of Corregidor at Owens Valley?" A sidebar states, "The Church at work: Pandering to Japs whom Uncle Sam deemed dangerous enough to intern. How many American-born Japs are fighting for their Son of Heaven?" Return address on envelope attributed to "Capt. Edwards, North Hollywood." See this object in the California State Universities Japanese American Digitization project site: WLM_01-44_02
