From Hawaii to the Holocaust a shared moment in history.

The story of the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion of the 100th/442nd Regimental Combat Team, a unit composed of Asian-American soldiers that helped liberate Dachau. It's also the story of two peoples--Jews and Americans of Japanese Ancestry (AJAs)--who both experienced government sanctioned oppression, racism & prejudice during World War II.
