Description
An account of the resource
Inside the Hawaii Army History Museum is an entire section dedicated to the Hawaiian members of the two main Japanese-American US Army units that were formed during World War II. Despite the fact that they and their families were denied their civil rights and many were sent to "Resettlement" Campus across isolated areas of the U.S., Japanese-Americans volunteered and fought in the war. The 100th Infantry Battalion and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team proved themselves above and beyond on the battlefield. The 442nd became the most decorated Army unit during World War II. This section of the museum tells their story and honors its members many of whom were from Hawaii. It also recognizes the 11 servicemen from Hawaii who have been awarded the U.S.'s highest medal for valor - the Medal of Honor.

Description
An account of the resource
Located just off the parking lot of the local Army Reserve depot, this beautiful memorial honors the 13 men and women from the local 14th Quartermaster Detachment who were killed on February 25, 1991 in a rocket attack on their barracks in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. This unit suffered the greatest number of casualties of any unit in the conflict. The memorial faces Saudi Arabia and is set back in a nicely landscaped area. The memorial consists of several separate items. In the center is a grey granite pillar on which is inscribed a dedication to those who served and a quote from General Norman Schwartzkopf; the pillar is topped by a bronze eagle with wings outstretched. Attached on each side of the center pillar are smaller black granite slabs to which are attached bronze plaques listing all those who served. On the reverse side of the granite memorial are listed the names of the 13 who were killed, a map of Saudi Arabia and a pair of hands holding a folded U.S. flag. To the right of the center pillar are two life-size bronze figures of a male and female soldier; the male is kneeling while the female figure rests her hand on his soldier; Susan Wagner sculpted these figures. To the left of the center pillar is the traditional battle zone memorial to a fallen comrade with a pair of combat boots, a rifle stuck into the ground barrel down with a helmet resting on the butt of the gun. The memorial still has local personal reminders of those who were lost.

Description
An account of the resource
In front of the only surviving Nazi Government World War II era building is the memorial to the popular uprising of June 17, 1953. East German citizens protested economic changes and demanded popular and free elections. These protests were eventually met with brutal suppression. The memorial is documented with displays and a beautiful rectangular reflecting pool with a holographic image visible on the bottom. As this site was visited on June 17, it is clear that the date still holds importance to many Berliners who have left wreaths and individual red roses surrounding the pool.
