var str = '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.';

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 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.';
