What did Japanese die of in the Concentration camps in World War 2?

Answer 1

Some Japanese Americans died in the camps due to inadequate medical care and the emotional stresses they encountered. Several were killed by military guards posted for allegedly resisting orders.

Answer 2

The US camps for interned personnel (mostly but not all Japanese) lacked proper sanitation and medical facilities. They may have died from diseases which could have been cured outside the camps.

Answer 3

All of them. Excepting any who died of old age, disease, or other natural causes, which would likely have ended their lives if they were still at home. There was no plan to kill them, and none of them were killed. These camps were nothing like the German death camps or Japanese POW camps.

Answer 4

Read the book Farewell to Manzanar written by Jeanne Wakatuski Huston. She tells the entire story of Manzanar. I have read it and I don't remember anyone being intentionally killed by the guards but I think there may have been an accidental death and there were deaths due to the sanitary conditions, exposure to the elements and disease.
