>>Many German Americans provided heroic service during the war<<I have wondered why there are no films about this. Japanese Americans served during WWII and have been honored both in a motion picture, "Go For Broke", and an excellent video documentary, "Beyond Barbed Wire." They are also the subject of a special section of the excellent Home Of Heroes website (see below).
>>as a German American one can not help but feel somehow related to what happened over there<<
I am a second generation American of Japanese ancestry (both my parents and grandparents were interned during WWII), but have also felt somehow related to the aggression and attack on Pearl Harbor, and more remotely, with the war atrocities committed against the Chinese and Koreans. I yearn for an official apology from Japan for the latter, but unfortunately realize that things change very slowly over there (except for Prime Ministers).
