Just an aside prompted by something said in this thread:

Tokyo Rose was a very nice person from my experiences with her. She had a Japanese import shop on Belmont Avenue in Chicago when I was in high school -- 1956-1959 -- and I'd go in and we'd talk. Her real name was IDA TAGURI. She was an American of Japanese ancestry who went back to Japan to take care of an ailing mother---then all hell broke loose as the war transpired. She was given the choice of doing the broadcasts or death. There was prison time earlier if I'm remembering right.
