Reblogged from pacificparatrooper:
I wrote this many, many years ago when I first heard the story about the raid and the release of 2,122 internees. I have been hesitant to include this in my father's story, but since you have all been so patient with me in the past, I thought I'd give it a shot. I am told that the rhythm is hard to find and my answer is: I told you I wasn't a professional.
