She was the daughter of Clayton Douglas, an American government employee doing agricultural education work, and Evangeline Douglas, a Canadian nursing missionary.  The family moved to Baguio, Luzon in 1937 and Whittle's brother Hugh was born. She had a relatively normal childhood prior to the war, attending Maryknoll Catholic School and the Episcopal Brent School with other American children of missionaries, doctors, businessmen, miners, etc. She participated in Brownies, took dance lessons and went to the movies among other activities.\n In the months leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, the Douglas family stored canned food in the basement but did not evacuate to the hills outside the city where their Filipino friends offered them shelter. Whittle's father was concerned about his health, as he was diabetic, and by the time the Japanese invaded on 8 December 1941, it was too late to evacuate. The Japanese summoned the Douglas family on 27 December 1941 to register and to stay one night in custody; the family packed light suitcases under this premise but were instead held until their liberation in 1945, never seeing their house, pets, or belongings again. Whittle was ten years old when the Japanese imprisoned her.\n From registration, the Japanese separated men, women, and children, and marched them five miles to Camp John Hay. Whittle carried her younger brother, Hugh, on her back, afraid she would never see her parents again, and afraid her father would die because he could no longer take his insulin. Upon arrival at Camp John Hay, she reunited with her mother; the Japanese separated families to intimidate them and demonstrate their power. Her mother suffered from the fear of being separated again for the rest of the war.\n Camp John Hay held 500 civilians, 125 of which were children. It was segregated, separating the Chinese from the Americans, and the men from the women and children. Whittle was able to occasionally see her father, despite their separation. The camp was cramped, had poor sanitation and little food. By the end of her stay, Whittle ate 100g of food per day and almost starved.\n In early 1942, Whittle and her family moved from Camp John Hay to Camp Holmes, where they were imprisoned for a majority of the war (3 years and 3 months). Her registration number was C-92. Although Camp Holmes had more room for the Incarcerated, men remained separated from women and children. Despite better living conditions, the Incarcerated people lived in fear of their Japanese imprisoners; the Japanese tortured the incarcerated for information and fed the camp propaganda about American forces losing. The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n Despite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n As the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors. While in Bilibid Prison, the Douglas family stayed in the infirmary as they had dengue fever, dysentery, and were starving. They were grateful to be behind the thick prison walls as the Battle for Manila raged on outside.\n By 3 February 1945, the Japanese guards had abandoned Bilibid Prison and advised the incarcerated people to remain inside for their own safety. It was there that American forces discovered the soldier POWs who then directed them to the civilian POW section. A majority of the incarcerated individuals were starving and had difficulty eating the food the Army provided. The Army moved them to Santo Tomas prison to avoid the approaching fires, and from there they processed the civilians to go home.\n On 3 April 1945, the Douglas family began their one-month journey on the USS E.W. Eberle to California. They briefly stayed with their family in Wisconsin before settling in Wildwood, Florida, where Whittle's father taught agriculture at Wildwood High School. Whittle continued her high school education and went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in Home Economics.\n The war impacted each family member differently. Whittle's father came out of internment no longer diabetic, looking to move on with their lives and determined to help rebuild the Philippines to what it had been. Conversely, Whittle's mother never overcame the constant fear of being separated from her children again and insisted they return to the United States so they could know what it was like to live as Americans. Whittle's brother realized the significance of their childhood experiences later in life, and Whittle herself always acknowledged how her experiences made her different from her peers. Above all, she was grateful to have been with her family during the war, no matter how bad the circumstances became.\n Whittle married Jay Francis Whittle and had four children. She was a teacher in Florida for over 36 years and involved in the community, including at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University.

She was the daughter of Clayton Douglas, an American government employee doing agricultural education work, and Evangeline Douglas, a Canadian nursing missionary.  The family moved to Baguio, Luzon in 1937 and Whittle's brother Hugh was born. She had a relatively normal childhood prior to the war, attending Maryknoll Catholic School and the Episcopal Brent School with other American children of missionaries, doctors, businessmen, miners, etc. She participated in Brownies, took dance lessons and went to the movies among other activities.\n In the months leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, the Douglas family stored canned food in the basement but did not evacuate to the hills outside the city where their Filipino friends offered them shelter. Whittle's father was concerned about his health, as he was diabetic, and by the time the Japanese invaded on 8 December 1941, it was too late to evacuate. The Japanese summoned the Douglas family on 27 December 1941 to register and to stay one night in custody; the family packed light suitcases under this premise but were instead held until their liberation in 1945, never seeing their house, pets, or belongings again. Whittle was ten years old when the Japanese imprisoned her.\n From registration, the Japanese separated men, women, and children, and marched them five miles to Camp John Hay. Whittle carried her younger brother, Hugh, on her back, afraid she would never see her parents again, and afraid her father would die because he could no longer take his insulin. Upon arrival at Camp John Hay, she reunited with her mother; the Japanese separated families to intimidate them and demonstrate their power. Her mother suffered from the fear of being separated again for the rest of the war.\n Camp John Hay held 500 civilians, 125 of which were children. It was segregated, separating the Chinese from the Americans, and the men from the women and children. Whittle was able to occasionally see her father, despite their separation. The camp was cramped, had poor sanitation and little food. By the end of her stay, Whittle ate 100g of food per day and almost starved.\n In early 1942, Whittle and her family moved from Camp John Hay to Camp Holmes, where they were imprisoned for a majority of the war (3 years and 3 months). Her registration number was C-92. Although Camp Holmes had more room for the Incarcerated, men remained separated from women and children. Despite better living conditions, the Incarcerated people lived in fear of their Japanese imprisoners; the Japanese tortured the incarcerated for information and fed the camp propaganda about American forces losing. The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n Despite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n As the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors.

She was the daughter of Clayton Douglas, an American government employee doing agricultural education work, and Evangeline Douglas, a Canadian nursing missionary.  The family moved to Baguio, Luzon in 1937 and Whittle's brother Hugh was born. She had a relatively normal childhood prior to the war, attending Maryknoll Catholic School and the Episcopal Brent School with other American children of missionaries, doctors, businessmen, miners, etc. She participated in Brownies, took dance lessons and went to the movies among other activities.\n In the months leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, the Douglas family stored canned food in the basement but did not evacuate to the hills outside the city where their Filipino friends offered them shelter. Whittle's father was concerned about his health, as he was diabetic, and by the time the Japanese invaded on 8 December 1941, it was too late to evacuate. The Japanese summoned the Douglas family on 27 December 1941 to register and to stay one night in custody; the family packed light suitcases under this premise but were instead held until their liberation in 1945, never seeing their house, pets, or belongings again. Whittle was ten years old when the Japanese imprisoned her.\n From registration, the Japanese separated men, women, and children, and marched them five miles to Camp John Hay. Whittle carried her younger brother, Hugh, on her back, afraid she would never see her parents again, and afraid her father would die because he could no longer take his insulin. Upon arrival at Camp John Hay, she reunited with her mother; the Japanese separated families to intimidate them and demonstrate their power. Her mother suffered from the fear of being separated again for the rest of the war.\n Camp John Hay held 500 civilians, 125 of which were children. It was segregated, separating the Chinese from the Americans, and the men from the women and children. Whittle was able to occasionally see her father, despite their separation. The camp was cramped, had poor sanitation and little food. By the end of her stay, Whittle ate 100g of food per day and almost starved.\n In early 1942, Whittle and her family moved from Camp John Hay to Camp Holmes, where they were imprisoned for a majority of the war (3 years and 3 months). Her registration number was C-92. Although Camp Holmes had more room for the Incarcerated, men remained separated from women and children. Despite better living conditions, the Incarcerated people lived in fear of their Japanese imprisoners; the Japanese tortured the incarcerated for information and fed the camp propaganda about American forces losing. The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n Despite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n As the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors. While in Bilibid Prison, the Douglas family stayed in the infirmary as they had dengue fever, dysentery, and were starving. They were grateful to be behind the thick prison walls as the Battle for Manila raged on outside.\n By 3 February 1945, the Japanese guards had abandoned Bilibid Prison and advised the incarcerated people to remain inside for their own safety. It was there that American forces discovered the soldier POWs who then directed them to the civilian POW section. A majority of the incarcerated individuals were starving and had difficulty eating the food the Army provided. The Army moved them to Santo Tomas prison to avoid the approaching fires, and from there they processed the civilians to go home.\n On 3 April 1945, the Douglas family began their one-month journey on the USS E.W. Eberle to California. They briefly stayed with their family in Wisconsin before settling in Wildwood, Florida, where Whittle's father taught agriculture at Wildwood High School. Whittle continued her high school education and went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in Home Economics.\n The war impacted each family member differently. Whittle's father came out of internment no longer diabetic, looking to move on with their lives and determined to help rebuild the Philippines to what it had been. Conversely, Whittle's mother never overcame the constant fear of being separated from her children again and insisted they return to the United States so they could know what it was like to live as Americans. Whittle's brother realized the significance of their childhood experiences later in life, and Whittle herself always acknowledged how her experiences made her different from her peers. Above all, she was grateful to have been with her family during the war, no matter how bad the circumstances became.\n Whittle married Jay Francis Whittle and had four children. She was a teacher in Florida for over 36 years and involved in the community, including at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University. She attended reunions for her fellow civilian incarcerated persons. Dorothy Douglas Whittle passed away on 2 May 2017.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","The Dorothy \"Dot\" Douglas Whittle Collection contains one box of personal papers, including a 35-page typed oral history transcript, photocopies of Whittle's diary from her internment, photocopies of Whittle's scrapbook about her internment, photographs of the Douglas family, and personal accounts of internment from other civilian prisoners.

The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors. While in Bilibid Prison, the Douglas family stayed in the infirmary as they had dengue fever, dysentery, and were starving. They were grateful to be behind the thick prison walls as the Battle for Manila raged on outside.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy 3 February 1945, the Japanese guards had abandoned Bilibid Prison and advised the incarcerated people to remain inside for their own safety. It was there that American forces discovered the soldier POWs who then directed them to the civilian POW section. A majority of the incarcerated individuals were starving and had difficulty eating the food the Army provided. The Army moved them to Santo Tomas prison to avoid the approaching fires, and from there they processed the civilians to go home.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn 3 April 1945, the Douglas family began their one-month journey on the USS E.W. Eberle to California. They briefly stayed with their family in Wisconsin before settling in Wildwood, Florida, where Whittle's father taught agriculture at Wildwood High School. Whittle continued her high school education and went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in Home Economics.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe war impacted each family member differently. Whittle's father came out of internment no longer diabetic, looking to move on with their lives and determined to help rebuild the Philippines to what it had been. Conversely, Whittle's mother never overcame the constant fear of being separated from her children again and insisted they return to the United States so they could know what it was like to live as Americans. Whittle's brother realized the significance of their childhood experiences later in life, and Whittle herself always acknowledged how her experiences made her different from her peers. Above all, she was grateful to have been with her family during the war, no matter how bad the circumstances became.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhittle married Jay Francis Whittle and had four children. She was a teacher in Florida for over 36 years and involved in the community, including at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University. She attended reunions for her fellow civilian incarcerated persons. Dorothy Douglas Whittle passed away on 2 May 2017.\u003c/p\u003e"]}]}}],"label":"Breadcrumbs"}}},"links":{"self":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/1124b692e3534f996ab051e9"}},{"id":"38d3ac0c2b796ee473d3f07b","type":"collection","attributes":{"title":"Hugh Zeigler papers, 1917-1951, Date acquired: 07/26/2001","creator":{"id":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/38d3ac0c2b796ee473d3f07b#creator","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":["Zeigler, Hugh, 1917-2010"],"label":"Creator"}},"abstract_or_scope":{"id":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/38d3ac0c2b796ee473d3f07b#abstract_or_scope","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":["\u003cp\u003eHugh Zeigler served with the 454th Heavy Bomb Aviation Ordnance Company, handling and caring for bombs, during World War II in the Philippine Islands.

He joined the United States Naval Reserve in 1940 and in 1941 was stationed at the United States Navy Hospital at Pearl Harbor. He was cited for his service during the Pearl Harbor attack and worked at Pearl Harbor until July 1943. He was then sent to work on the furnishing of a large hospital ship in Brooklyn, New York, and was on the ship when it later took care of casualties from Okinawa; transporting injured from Okinawa to Pearl Harbor. At the end of the war, he was sent to Nagasaki as part of the first medical team to enter the city. There he cared for American POWs and returned to the U.S. by December 1945. \n        James Izumizaki of Watsonville, California, fought in the U.S. Army's 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all Japanese-American unit which became the most decorated combat unit of WWII. He enlisted on March 3, 1940 and was trained in El Paso, Texas, and Anniston, Alabama. He saw heavy fighting in the 442 Regimental combat unit in fighting with the 5th Army in Italy and 7th Army in southern France. He was wounded in combat and his brother Henry, who was also in the unit, died while he was still at the field hospital. Mr. Izumizaki was a regular rifleman and ended the war in Germany guarding enemy POWs. In September 1945 he returned to California and began work for many large growers. For almost 30 years, he worked for the Bud Atnle Company and was closely involved with all aspects of growing, marketing, and shipping of produce from both the Pajaro and Salinas Valleys; managing thousands of acres. \n        Lt. Colonel Lavern Borg, Jr. received the Meritorious Service Medal as chief, Personnel Division, Landstuhl Medical Department Activity, Landstuhl, Germany. \n        The pamphlet in the collection tells the story of Japanese in the Pajaro Valley from the first Japanese arrivals around 1890 to the present. The Japanese faced much prejudice but prospered in the agriculture sector. During WWII, the Japanese community was incarcerated and living conditions were rough. Most of the Japanese were sent to Poston Relocation Camp, Arizona, but many did return to the valley after the war. Naturip Berry Groves started in 1917 is now one of the largest berry cooperatives in the world. Eventually, in the 1970s and 1980s, the U.S. government acknowledged the hardship it put the Japanese community through and gave some payment to them.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection contains two oral histories; one with Dr. Philip Gilman, Jr. and one with James Izumizaki.

He joined the United States Naval Reserve in 1940 and in 1941 was stationed at the United States Navy Hospital at Pearl Harbor. He was cited for his service during the Pearl Harbor attack and worked at Pearl Harbor until July 1943. He was then sent to work on the furnishing of a large hospital ship in Brooklyn, New York, and was on the ship when it later took care of casualties from Okinawa; transporting injured from Okinawa to Pearl Harbor. At the end of the war, he was sent to Nagasaki as part of the first medical team to enter the city. There he cared for American POWs and returned to the U.S. by December 1945. \n        James Izumizaki of Watsonville, California, fought in the U.S. Army's 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all Japanese-American unit which became the most decorated combat unit of WWII. He enlisted on March 3, 1940 and was trained in El Paso, Texas, and Anniston, Alabama. He saw heavy fighting in the 442 Regimental combat unit in fighting with the 5th Army in Italy and 7th Army in southern France. He was wounded in combat and his brother Henry, who was also in the unit, died while he was still at the field hospital. Mr. Izumizaki was a regular rifleman and ended the war in Germany guarding enemy POWs. In September 1945 he returned to California and began work for many large growers. For almost 30 years, he worked for the Bud Atnle Company and was closely involved with all aspects of growing, marketing, and shipping of produce from both the Pajaro and Salinas Valleys; managing thousands of acres. \n        Lt. Colonel Lavern Borg, Jr. received the Meritorious Service Medal as chief, Personnel Division, Landstuhl Medical Department Activity, Landstuhl, Germany. \n        The pamphlet in the collection tells the story of Japanese in the Pajaro Valley from the first Japanese arrivals around 1890 to the present. The Japanese faced much prejudice but prospered in the agriculture sector. During WWII, the Japanese community was incarcerated and living conditions were rough. Most of the Japanese were sent to Poston Relocation Camp, Arizona, but many did return to the valley after the war. Naturip Berry Groves started in 1917 is now one of the largest berry cooperatives in the world. Eventually, in the 1970s and 1980s, the U.S. government acknowledged the hardship it put the Japanese community through and gave some payment to them.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection contains two oral histories; one with Dr. Philip Gilman, Jr. and one with James Izumizaki.

McKay attended the Episcopal Brent School in Baguio as a boarding student, as did many American children in the Philippines and surrounding Pacific at that time. Leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, many of these boarding students went home or to the United States, but McKay remained in Baguio and was subsequently separated from his family for the duration of World War II. The Japanese began attacking the Philippines on the morning of December 8, 1941, and took Baguio on December 27. McKay, along with other Brent students and teachers, and hundreds of the Allied civilians of Baguio, gathered at Brent School to surrender to the Japanese on December 28. They were initially interned at the nearby Camp John Hay, but later moved to Camp Holmes where they spent most of their internment.\n While interned at Camp Holmes, McKay was \"adopted\" by John and Zella Barrett, and dated their daughter Irene. He completed his high school education in the camp-built school and received a graduation diploma. While not in school, he was part of the Wood Crew, which was one of the many camp chore crews that the internees developed. As a member of the Wood Crew, he was able to leave the camp on a daily basis to chop wood, and while out, he could trade extra clothing for store credit to purchase food from the local Filipinos. To entertain himself, he played Cribbage with other internees. Internees also played baseball, sometimes against the Japanese guards. McKay mentioned that one Japanese commandant, Rokuro Tomibe, was instrumental in getting the camp their only Red Cross care packages in time for Christmas 1943. After Christmas of 1944, the Japanese moved the internees from Baguio to Old Bilibid Prison in Manila. They were then liberated by American forces on February 4, 1945. During the aftermath of liberation, McKay and a friend of his hitched a ride around Manila on one of the American tanks to give them directions through the city. He was then selected in the first lottery to send civilians home to the United States.\n McKay reunited with his family in San Francisco in April 1945. He was able to transition into college despite having been interned for three years. He believed his life was not greatly affected by his internment and recognized that the civilian internees were relatively comfortable in comparison to American Prisoners of War imprisoned by the Japanese.","Note written by Gillian Morton","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This forty page oral history interview transcript relates to Robert Mckay who was a student and interned by the Japanese at Baguio in the Philippine Islands during World War II.  The interview was conducted with McKay at a Baguio Internee reunion.

McKay, along with other Brent students and teachers, and hundreds of the Allied civilians of Baguio, gathered at Brent School to surrender to the Japanese on December 28. They were initially interned at the nearby Camp John Hay, but later moved to Camp Holmes where they spent most of their internment.\n While interned at Camp Holmes, McKay was \"adopted\" by John and Zella Barrett, and dated their daughter Irene. He completed his high school education in the camp-built school and received a graduation diploma. While not in school, he was part of the Wood Crew, which was one of the many camp chore crews that the internees developed. As a member of the Wood Crew, he was able to leave the camp on a daily basis to chop wood, and while out, he could trade extra clothing for store credit to purchase food from the local Filipinos. To entertain himself, he played Cribbage with other internees. Internees also played baseball, sometimes against the Japanese guards. McKay mentioned that one Japanese commandant, Rokuro Tomibe, was instrumental in getting the camp their only Red Cross care packages in time for Christmas 1943. After Christmas of 1944, the Japanese moved the internees from Baguio to Old Bilibid Prison in Manila. They were then liberated by American forces on February 4, 1945. During the aftermath of liberation, McKay and a friend of his hitched a ride around Manila on one of the American tanks to give them directions through the city. He was then selected in the first lottery to send civilians home to the United States.\n McKay reunited with his family in San Francisco in April 1945. He was able to transition into college despite having been interned for three years. He believed his life was not greatly affected by his internment and recognized that the civilian internees were relatively comfortable in comparison to American Prisoners of War imprisoned by the Japanese.","Note written by Gillian Morton","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This forty page oral history interview transcript relates to Robert Mckay who was a student and interned by the Japanese at Baguio in the Philippine Islands during World War II.  The interview was conducted with McKay at a Baguio Internee reunion.
