Japanese experiences in Hawaii

Japanese Cultural Center "Okage Sama De"Virtual Tour

This video is from the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii (Honolulu) series “Okage Sama De” virtual tours. The term loosely translates as “What I am today is because of you.” It is a beautiful phrase of gratitude. It is a well-done, informative, and emotionally striking film.

Thanks for reading World War II Hawaii: Beaches, Brothels, and Barbed Wire! If you enjoy reading about World War II Hawaii, my husband (retired USMC Lieutenant Colonel) and I wrote an Images of America: World War II Hawaii book that can be purchased at any online or independent book store.
