Tokyo Rose dead at 90
 
Ironically she was an American caught in Japan when war started.

She died in Chicago Tuesday. I find that interesting.

Wow. I'm surprised that she was living in America.

After she served her time, she fought and won a deportation order. She was also pardoned by President Ford, IIRC. And, 'Tokyo Rose' was probably more than one female. I'm guessing that she was just the most convenient target.

Why would anyone pardon someone who tried to harm our country and it's defenders?

It's debateable that she did either.

Since meme is still posting that knocks me out of the pool.
