FOUR-FOUR-TWO,  F-COMPANY AT WAR

 

The 442nd Regimental Combat Team – comprised of Americans of Japanese ancestry – fought in Italy and France during World War II against the German Army of Hitler’s Third Reich. It earned a reputation for being a crack infantry unit and the regiment and its men received considerable battlefield honors and individual medals of valor. Follow the exploits of F Company through the letters of 1st Sergeant Jack Wakamatsu and interviews with five F Company veterans who recall in vivid detail their experiences from witnessing the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor to the Banzai charge up a hill in France where F Company wiped out a German company.
