The War Brides Act (Public Law 271) was enacted in 1945 to allow spouses and adopted children of United States military personnel to enter the U.S. after World War II.[1] The law temporarily lifted the ban on Asian Immigration and the quotas on European immigration that had been established by the Immigration Act of 1924. The provisions of the War Brides Act were extended and amended by the Alien Fiancées and Fiancés Act of 1946 and the Soldier Brides Acts of 1946 and 1947. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 removed race as a limiting factor in immigration, and made possible the entry of military spouses and children from South Korea after the Korean War. ~ Wikipedia
