for perspective, my father-in-law is a 100% Japanese. He is an eighty nine yr. old WWII veteran. He was attacked by the Japanese while in Hawaii during the infamous Pearl Harbor assault. He still refers to them as the Japs just the same as his WWII buddies did. Though he is 100% Japanese, he considers himself to be 100% American. He does not allow himself to be labeled in an hyphenated fashion.
