J_Andrews Posted March 6, 2014 Share #5 Posted March 6, 2014 Make that the 100th Inf Bn (Sep), precursor to the 442nd RCT. The Bn went overseas and served as an attachment to the 34th, and th RCT formed AFTER it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got da Penny Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted March 6, 2014 Thanks so much for everyone's comments and replies. I had no idea about the 100th inf bn. !!!! That is awesome news. Does that make it more scarce, having an early photo of 34th nesei soldier ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
