    Thank you for your service!

    All, I just wanted to drop a note in here to thank all of you for your service. I'm humbled by your selflessness.

    Although I never had the honor/privilege of serving, my father served in WWII in the 442nd RCT/100th Battalion in France and Italy.

    Thank you again!

    Respectfully,

    Mike

    The famous Go-For-Broke 442nd? That's a piece of history.

      Yes! He was born in Santa Cruz, CA and joined up with the Hawaiian boys in the 100th. Trained at Camp Shelby.

        My father served with the 36th out of Texas. While he wasn't with the lost battalion, he always said of the 442nd, "Those guys saved my ***".

        So, from my father to your father, "Thanks for serving!".
