Légende

Tokyo Rose leaving the court room, after the verdict, accompanied by U.S. Marshal Herbert C. Cole. Tokyo Rose was a name given by Allied troops in the South Pacific during World War II to all female English-speaking radio broadcasters of Japanese propaganda. Several female broadcasters operated using different aliases and in different cities throughout the territories occupied by the Japanese Empire. Tokyo Rose ceased to be merely a symbol during September 1945 when Iva Toguri D'Aquino was accused of being the "real" Tokyo Rose, arrested, tried, and became the seventh person in U.S. history to be convicted of treason. Toguri was eventually paroled from prison in 1956, but it was more than 20 years later that she received an official presidential pardon for her role in the war
