God bless the 442nd, all who are with us, all who have passed over time, and especially those who gave their lives in a time when their families and friends were not accorded the rights they fought so valiantly to preserve.

My step-grandfather Nelson Akagi is part of the 442. He volunteered. They were sent to interment camps, but not made to fight. They fought to prove their loyalty to this country and to regain their freedoms that they were no longer given. Just search his name and 442. You will find several articles. One is from Deseret News, one from University of Utah. They were not brainwashed. He was studying at Cal Poly to become and engineer before there were told they had to move.

In response to simonkism Brainwashed? Who brainwashed you? Why is it so hard for you to believe that fighting and dying for cherished ideals as Liberty, Freedom is a natural and inane thing? The 442 was put into those situations because they showed that they could get the job done when other units could not. in a qoute from a great movie. "Pick up a weapon and man a post" then take a look around you. Who is standing with you? Bulgarians, Blacks, Brits, Who brainwashed them?

wow the responses to this video are so ignorant it is disgusting. this is a group of japanese americans that were interned against there will because of there race but they were so brainwashed by american propaganda they went in to the army, in the army there group was put in to ridiculously dangerous situations because of there race, yes they are hero, but its because they were able to fight there way out of the awful situations that white people put them in specifically because of there race

AMAZING. Never tire of reading/watching vids, shows of 442 Regiment, the MOST decorated in US History. Many Americans do not know this because it hasn't been publicized as much as it should have back then and now. Americans need to understand that JAPANESE-AMERICANS saved hundreds of Caucasian lives in WWII because of their bravery, loyalty, intelligence. 442 is the best and bravest in the WORLD EVER. Very proud of the Japanese-Americans now and then......great people. Mark Ross, MD

The "ONE PUKA-PUKA"... (in Hawaiian, Puka means "hole"... and the 100th Battalion was made up largely of Japanese-Americans from the Hawaiian National Guard), because the number zero looked like a hole... so the 100th Battalion became the ONE PUKA-PUKA... just ask your folks about it!!
President Truman was so moved by their bravery in the Field of Battle during World War II that he issued a Presidential Executive Order desegregating the US Armed Forces.
