Nisei Officer

Nisei is a Japanese term for children born to Japanese parents in a new country and are considered the second generation. During World War II, Japanese Americans were interned in camps for fear they would be loyal to Japan. However, many American Nisei served in World War II for the U.S., serving as linguists or military troops in defense of their country. The Japanese American 100th Infantry Battalion and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team fighting in the European theater became the most decorated unit in U.S. military history for its size and length of service.
