http://www.historyonthenet.com/WW2/pow_camps_japan.htm
This website is easy enough for me to read all the information in it.In addition,the pictures in this website help me a lot to learn more about prisoner camp.

I learned the war camps almost encircled with barbed wire and high wooden fencing.
If someone attempted to escape ,they would be execute in front of the other prisoners.How terrible!

This is a webpage from the same website.It talks abot the prisoners of German prisoner camp.
The webpage shows us some camps in German.

I learned the prisoners in camps in German was given two meal a day,thin soup and break bread.Although the meals isn't good enough for a 「people」, the prisoners was contented because prisoners were humble then.

prisoners took the train to the cruel camps....

Spies in WWII


This website talks about four spies's history in WWII.I got much information from it.

I learned a spy should spend much time to get a country's trust, almost 5 to 10 years.
They have to pass a lot of questioning,also should hide their normal identity,life ,even their family.It is really a harsh mission.

This website is easy to read.It is a discussion from a spy .However , it doesn't have any pictures.

I learned that a spy has to shoulder a lot of danger.If you are found , you will lose your whole life.In addition, If one spy of a country are found,the government will questioning all people from the same place .

Pearl Harbor

This website is good.There is so much information about this raid,about the objective or warships,but this article is too long to read it clearly.So I spent a lot of time on it.
I learned this attack was a major engagemant of WWII.It was a military strike conducted by the Japanese navy against the US naval base because the harbor was an important military harbor of the US.In addition,this attack had several major aims,not only the Pearl Harbor.
