"My Body Trembles with Fear": Okinawans Remember World War II in Davao.

This article is about family, community, and war memory. It is based on oral histories from Kin Town in Okinawa, Japan, an agricultural community and the site of Camp Hansen, a military base for U.S. Marines. Before World War II, emigrants from Kin migrated to Hawai'i, the Americas, and the Philippines. This article describes their experiences during World War II in the Philippines and it also discusses why memories of Davao and the Philippines continue to be a source of conflicting emotions for members of this community, several of whom were repatriates, and their extended families.
