Could the Japanese have invaded the US?

[Ratzki]

My grandfather was in his early teens and lived on Vancouver Island in the midst of a Japanese logging operation during the war. Now mind you that alot if not most of what was said would be rumour ect., but his mother had talked to the family about conversations by Japanese workers about landings on the Island at different points and several drills that occured by some workers in the camps. Apparently not all the Japanese in the area were for the cooperation with Japanese forces, but a majority were. My grandfather's family ran a small outfitting store and supplied the logging operation throughout the war with materials. At the time this part of the Island was very sparsely settled.
