Answer: To show loyalty to the U.S., gain upward mobility and/or Citizenship
Explanation: During World War II, many Americans of Japanese descent volunteered to join the U.S. military. This was in spite of growing sentiments against them as well as internment of Japanese Americans in camps.
It was a way to show loyalty to the U.S. For some it was the only way to gain citizenship, as well as move up the social ranks as ethnic minority groups had limited rights. They were first rejected, with the exception of bilingual Japanese Americans who helped with translation and interrogation.

The term "four portals" (yottsu no kuchi) is now virtually standard terminology in Japanese history textbooks, but it was a foreign concept when I introduced it some 30 years ago in an effort to overturn the prevailing image of early modern Japan as a country shut off from the rest of the world. Such a basic change in premise necessitated a complete reexamination of foreign relations in early modern Japan, including the role played by Nagasaki. In 1983, I proposed that the concept of sakoku be replaced with the concepts of kaikin (maritime restrictions) and a Japanese version of ka-i chitsujo (Sinocentric world order). More recently I have analyzed how the notion of closed and open countries took hold and helped shape the identity of the Japanese in the modern era.
