In this episode of ABC7's FACEism's series, we focus on one soldier in particular who is teaching the world about an entire generation of remarkable Americans.During World War II, a segregated unit of Japanese Americans in the U.S. Army became known as some of the greatest fighters in American history.series, we focus on one soldier in particular who is teaching the world about an entire generation of remarkable Americans.
The answer lies 6,000 miles away in downtown Los Angeles. It's a diary and one of the most valued possessions at the Japanese American National Museum.The entries were written by a then-16-year-old Stanley Hayami from San Gabriel. Stanley and his family had been forced out of their home and incarcerated at Heart Mountain Internment camp.
Inside the museum, however, she's a different person. You don't have to speak Italian to feel the depths of her pain. She points to the photos on the wall, where you see villagers she knew as a child. It was soon after that massacre the Nisie fought their way into town and crushed the Germans. Now, we understand their gratitude but liberation comes with a price.
It was just three lines: "Your son Pvt. Hayami Stanley K was killed in action in Italy 23 April, 45."The procession traveled down first street in Little Tokyo, right by where his diary sits today. He was laid to rest at Evergreen Cemetery next to many other Nisei heroes. Among centuries old wine barrels, there's Stanley's helmet - it's been sitting in the cellar for 77 years.
