Japanese Flag flying over Philippine Internment Camp


Historian and collector Rick Libby with a Japanese flag that flew over the Santo Tomas internment camp in Manila in 1945. It has the names of all the men in the unit that participated in the liberation.
In the fall, Red Engine Press will launch a book about a young American girl whose family were internees of the Japanese from December 26, 1941 until the end of the war. At that point, they were being kept at the Biblibid prison in Manila.
