National Go for Broke Day is on April 5, and we are excited to celebrate a day marked in honor of one of the finest American military units that fought for peace and saw to the end of World War II — the 442nd Regimental Combat Team of the United States Army.
The 4442nd R.C.T. proved their strength and patriotism on the battlefield, fighting against numerous odds and winning landslide victories for the country. By the end of the war, they became the most decorated regiment in the country with over 18,000 individual soldiers decorated. They received seven presidential unit Citations, two Meritorious Service Plaques, 36 Army Commendation Medals, 87 Division Commendations, 21 Medals of Honor, nearly 4,000 Purple Hearts, and more.
