In this award-winning documentary Wendy Hanamura explores the history of her father's military unit; Company L, First Platoon, of the U. S. Army's 442nd Regiment. These Japanese-American soldiers fought with legendary courage during World War I I, while their families were forced into internment camps at home. Veterans recount the 442nd's rescue of the "Lost Battalion", an operation the Army calls one of the top ten battles of all time. Produced and directed by Joan Saffa.
