David Boyd · Answer 1

was involved in World War II.

Explanation:

After Japan's bombing of Pearl Harbor during WWII, U. S president, F. D. Roosevelt, ordered the forced relocation into concentration camps of around 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry, the majority of them being actually U. S. citizens.

These actions, comparable, in degree, to those conducted by Hitler against people of Jewish descent, amongst others, is one of the darkest chapters in the history of the USA.
