Description
An account of the resource
This stunning memorial in Washington, D.C. honors Japanese Americans who fought in World War II as well as those who were held in relocation camps during the war. The memorial is set within a beautiful landscaped plaza with a small pond. The memorial is composed of granite walls inscribed with quotations from Japanese Americans as well as from those who honor their experience and the triumph of justice. There are panels with the names of each relocation camp and the number of people held in each camp. There are also specific tributes to the 100th Battalion, the 442 Regimental Combat Team, and Military Intelligence Service -- all of which were composed of Japanese Americans. Prominently featured and rising above he granite panels is a lovely sculpture of two cranes atop a green marble base. The cranes are nestled together with one wing each raised skyward and supporting each other. The remaining wing for each bird is held to the base by barbed wire out of which they are attempting to break free.
