Actually, the Manzanar national monuments show pictures of barbed-wire,
machine guns towers, etc.

The point raised was whether the guns on the towers (if any
and in which towers) were pointed inward or outward, not
whether they existed.

And speaking of Manzanar, pro-Japan fanantics tried to kill
the MPs during the course of riots which, among other reasons,
included a celebration of the first anniversary of Japan's victory
at Pearl Harbor. A couple of Thompson sub-machine guns were
used by MPs to defend themselves at that time.
