Built in 1933 as an annex to the Oklahoma State Penitentiary, Stringtown became the Oklahoma State Technical Institute in 1937. In 1942, a group of German internees were moved to Stringtown from Ft. Lincoln, North Dakota. In his study of the Ft. Lincoln detention camp, John Christgau wrote that Stringtown had \"a penitentiary atmosphere, with smashed windows, cockroaches, and worst of all, pro-Nazi radicals.\" Tetsuden Kashima writes that Stringtown held \"at least\" 176 Issei in 1942, the only mention of Issei being held there. No further information on who these Issei could be found. Stringtown later held naval prisoners of war. After the war, it reverted to being a prison and is now the site of the Mack Alford Correctional Center, a medium security prison.\n  <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-1\">\n   <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-1\">\n    [1]\n   </a>\n  </sup>\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n  <b>\n   Authored by\n   <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Brian_Niiya/\" title=\"Brian Niiya\">\n    Brian Niiya\n   </a>\n   , Densho\n  </b>\n </div>\n <div id=\"citationAuthor\" style=\"display:none;\">\n  Niiya, Brian\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Footnotes\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Footnotes\">\n    Footnotes\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <div class=\"reflist\" style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n    <div class=\"mw-references-wrap\">\n     <ol class=\"references\">\n      <li id=\"cite_note-1\">\n       <span class=\"mw-cite-backlink\">\n        <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_ref-1\">\n         ↑\n        </a>\n       </span>\n       <span class=\"reference-text\">\n        Barbara Wyatt, ed.,\n        <i>\n         Japanese Americans in World War II: National Historic Landmarks Theme Study\n        </i>\n        (Washington, D.C.: National Historic Landmarks Program, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, 2012), 189; John Christgau,\n        <i>\n         \"Enemies\": World War II Alien Internment\n        </i>\n        (Ames: Iowa State University Press, 1985; Lincoln, Nebraska: Authors Choice Press, 2001), 84; Tetsuden Kashima,\n        <i>\n         Judgment Without Trial: Japanese American Imprisonment during World War II\n        </i>\n        (Seattle: University of Washington Press, 2002), 257n32, 259n36.\n       </span>\n      </li>\n     </ol>\n    </div>\n   </div>\n   <!-- \nNewPP limit report\nCached time: 20230613175541\nCache expiry: 86400\nDynamic content: false\nComplications: []\nCPU time usage: 0.014 seconds\nReal time usage: 0.020 seconds\nPreprocessor visited node count: 185/1000000\nPost‐expand include size: 3510/2097152 bytes\nTemplate argument size: 964/2097152 bytes\nHighest expansion depth: 5/40\nExpensive parser function count: 0/100\nUnstrip recursion depth: 0/20\nUnstrip post‐expand size: 833/5000000 bytes\nExtLoops count: 0\n-->\n   <!--\nTransclusion expansion time report (%,ms,calls,template)\n100.00%   15.214      1 -total\n 14.61%    2.222      1 Template:Reflist\n 12.23%    1.860      1 Template:Databox-Camps\n  8.86%    1.348      1 Template:AuthorByline\n  8.80%    1.339      1 Template:Published\n  8.24%    1.254      1 Template:needmoreinfo\n-->\n   <!-- Saved in parser cache with key encycmw:pcache:idhash:1222-0!canonical and timestamp 20230613175541 and revision id 33889\n -->\n  </div>\n </div>\n</div>\n<div class=\"toplink\">\n <a href=\"#top\">\n  <i class=\"icon-chevron-up\">\n  </i>\n  Top\n </a>\n</div>",
