In this Aug. 18, 2010 photo, shows Ronny Herman de Jong in Prescott, Ariz. Ronny Herman de Jong, now nearly 72, prefers to remember rather than the years she, her mother and sister spent in a Japanese concentration camp during the war when that country occupied Surabaia on the island of Java, now a part of Indonesia. Her mother, Jeannette Herman-Louwerse , 100, who lives today in the Netherlands, carefully chronicled their ordeal in a journal that de Jong translated from Dutch to English years later and compiled into a book, "In the Shadow of the Sun."
