The Nisei (Japanese ancestry) Soldiers of the 100th and 442nd | Hawaii | Oahu Films
This film shares the powerful story of the Nisei (second generation) soldiers from Hawai‘i. Young men of Japanese ancestry who chose to serve their country even as their loyalty was questioned at home. While their families faced discrimination, martial law, and incarceration, they volunteered for the 100th Infantry Battalion, the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, and the Military Intelligence Service, becoming some of the most highly decorated units in U.S. military history. Their courage and sacrifice helped redefine what it meant to be American and marked a turning point in the fight for civil rights and belonging.
