USAMHI Ethncity - Jap - Amer RefBranch js Apr 86 SECURITY PERSONNEL AT JAP-AMER CAMPS, WWII A Research Note Evacuating the Nisei and administering the relocation centers involved numerous federal agencies, both civ and mil. Exec Order No. 9102 (18 Mar 1942) gave overall admin responsibility for the program to the War Relocation Authority, a civilian agency within the Office of Emergency Management. Because and earlier Exec Order had mandated the relocation, the War Dept, up until creation of the WRA, had been overseeing many aspects of the evacuation and exclusion of Jap-Amers from the West Coast. War Dept involvement incld MPs and other personnel in various capacities during all phases of the WRA- evacuation, from civil control stations to assembly centers and on to the final internment at the relocation centers. A clearly-defined chain of command for MP personnel has not been located here. The Provost Marshal General's history of the war merely indicates that the branch "worked closely" with the WRA.
