Nisei War Hero Sgt. Kuroki
Pleads for American Respect
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4--
Sgt. Ben Kuroki, Japanese
American who twice has won
the Distinguished Flying
Cross, today told the Com-
monwealth Club that despite
his army uniform and his
medals,he was unsure whether
or not he was safe on the
streets of his own country.
“After the widespread
publicity given the atro-
city stories,"Kuroki said,
"I find prejudice once again
directed against me, and
neither my uniform nor the
medals which are visible
proof of what I have been
through, have been able to
stop it."
Kuroki said when he
joined the army,his fellow
soldiers in gunnery school
shunned him and his brother.
After his training he was
sent to England, where he
became a Liberator bomber
gunner. He also won the
Air Medal and four Oak Leaf
Clusters.
"Under fire, a man's
ancestry--what he did before
the war or even his present
rank-don't matter at all,"
he said. "You're fighting
as a team....You're fight-
ing for each other's lives
and for your country--you're
living and proving democra-
cy."

QUADRUPED EVACUEE
- continued from page 1---
located" first fleas, so
he avers.
Who is this interesting
party? How come this un-
due publicity? And why
the hub-bub by the two re-
location officials on the
subject.
Well, it seems three
local sisters relocated to
Boston and made good, so
good that they persuaded
their parents to also relo-
cate and make their home
there. But that is,accord-
ing to Clapp, a secondary
matter in this story, for
his claim to fame is the
fact that for once he was
barking up the right tree
to sell relocation to a
canine customer of Amache.
When Mr. and Mrs. Tay
Andow of 10H-9E, formerly
of Livingston, Calif., left
recently to join their
daughters in Boston, their
faithful dog went along
like any other relocator.
And that dog,claims Clapp,
is the first quadruped
evacuee to take out an “in-
definite" to start, life a-
new.
