This was a program initiated and managed by the State Department with assistance from various U.S. agencies in Latin America, including the FBI and the army. From 15 Latin American countries: Italians: 288; Germans: 4,058; Japanese: 2,264 (mostly from Peru). Most were brought to the United States for internment and possible repatriation; others were deported to their mother countries directly from Latin America.
