If I'm not mistaken, Italian seamen who were in US ports when the war started were interned. When I was a kid, some of the watch towers and fences were still in place at Ft. Missoula, which was just a half mile away from where I lived.

I think some of those guys are still in Missoula, having become citizens after the war. serve.com

My father-in-law (a "German-American" if you use the criteria for African-Americans, Native-Americans, and Japanese-Americans) whose surname is as common "Smith" or "Jones" in Germany, was too busy dropping bombs out of a B-17 to be considered for internment in the US. However, the Germans did not see it that way and put him in Stalag 3 for two years.
