- Summary:
- During World War II, people of Japanese descent from Oregon, Washington and California were incarcerated at the Heart Mountain Relocation Center in Park County, Wyoming, as the result of an executive order of President Franklin Roosevelt. Residents were at the camp from August 12, 1942 to November 10, 1945, two months after the end of the war with Japan. When the camp was at its largest, it held more than 10,000 people, making it the third largest town in the state.
