One example of a loyalty pledge occurred with the Japanese Americans on the west coast. Nearly all persons of Japanese ancestry had been forcibly moved from their homes, farms, and jobs to detention camps at Tule Lake, Manzanar, and several other spots. After about a year, the men in detention were given the opportunity to leave the camps if they pledged loyalty to the United States and offered to help the United States in the war effort. Men of draft age were required to sign up for the draft. Most Japanese-American men had few issues with the pledge and wanted out of the awful camps. People at one or two of the camps objected to their treatment and initially refused to sign the pledge, feeling it was unjust.

Loyalty pledges were also used for recent German and Italian immigrants, but not with the consistency or consequences forced on the Japanese Americans.
