Citations for action during WWII.
The 442nd was assigned to Gen. Mark Clark’s
5th Army and entered battle at Suvereto, Italy,
on June 26, 1944. For the next 10 weeks, the unit
engaged the German army in the mountainous
Italian terrain, driving the enemy forces north to
the Arno River.
From October through November 1944, the
rest of the 442nd RCT served in northeastern
France with the 36th Infantry Division in
the dark and bitter-cold forests of the Vosges
Mountains. No invading force in history had
ever succeeded in defeating the defending force
in the Vosges forest. But the 442nd succeeded
in doing so, liberating the French towns of
Bruyeres, Belmont and Biffontaine.
As it was about to be pulled back to enjoy hot
meals and showers, the 442nd was ordered back
to the front lines in late Oct. 1944, to rescue the
surrounded “Lost Battalion” of the 36th “Texas”
Division which had been surrounded by German
forces. The final rescue attempt succeeded after
a five-day battle in which the 442nd RCT rescued
211 men, was awarded 3 Medals of Honor, but
suffered over 800 casualties. In 1962, Governor
John Connally expressed Texas gratitude by
making 442nd RCT veterans Honorary Texans.
(Note: that rescue subsequently had a positive
effect on Texas Congressional members who
voted for Hawaiian statehood!)
The intensity of the combat fought by the
100th Battalion/422nd RCT in Italy and France
is well–defined by the many awards received
in slightly more than one month of combat in
the “impenetrable” Vosges: five Presidential
Unit Citations, five Medals of Honor, and nine
Distinguished Service Crosses.
The 442nd returned to Italy in April 1945, at
the request of General Mark Clark who wanted
them to lead the 5th Army’s attack to breach the
German Gothic Line that had blocked the Allied
advance for six months. The 442nd broke through
the German defenses at Mount Folgorito in less
than a day—and for the next three weeks forced
the German Army to continue its retreat north
to the Po Valley, where it finally surrendered on
May 2, 1945.
In just 10 months of combat against Germany,
the 442nd RCT compiled a remarkable fighting
record, but it came at a high price. More than
800 were killed or missing in action in those
campaigns. The 100th Battalion/442nd RCT, was
honored with seven Presidential Unit Citations,
9,486 Purple Hearts (more than half of assigned
personnel), and a large number of individual
decorations for bravery.
This was the culmination of an unmatched
record of combat bravery and achievement: the
units’ soldiers were awarded a total of: 21 Medals
of Honor, 9,486 Purple Hearts (more than half of
assigned personnel), 29 Distinguished Service
Crosses, 588 Silver Stars, more than 4,000 Bronze
Stars, and an unprecedented seven Presidential
Unit Citations, for ACTION DURING WWII.
This remarkable achievement made the 100th
Battalion/442nd RCT the most decorated unit of
its size and length of service in the entire history
of the US Military.
Subsequently, on July 15, 1946, President
Truman reviewed the 442nd on the outer south
lawn of the White House following its march
down Constitution Avenue. He paid the Nisei
unit the ultimate tribute when he proclaimed,
“You fought the enemy abroad and prejudice at
home and you won.” ☐
