If there was any slight difference between Americans and the other allied peoples during the war, Japanese called Americans Ameko like Americans called Japanese Jap. Rosuke for Russians and Chankoro for Chinese but there were no specific such insulting terms for the rest of them who were categorized as Keto (slang for people who have brown hairs). In the post war, I remember Japanese frequently used Keto like "Keto dropped atomic bombs" as Keto was represented by Americans.

I know the world doesn't agree with Japan's excuse for the comfort women in Korea and would not but this picture corresponds with our veterans' testimonies very well. If you hate, please forget.

 
Caption is simple but another picture shows details.
They were brought to Japan's homeland as POWs but more details are unknown.
