Band of Brothers / The Pacific parallels, pt. 3

I was scared.

Men, it’s been a long war, it’s been a tough war. You’ve fought bravely, proudly for your country. You’re a special group. You’ve found in one another a bond that exists only in combat. Among brothers, you’ve shared foxholes, held each other in dire moments. You’ve seen death and suffered together. I’m proud to have served with each and every one of you. You deserve long and happy lives in peace.’

We have met the enemy and have learned nothing more about him. I have, however, learned some things about myself. There are things men can do to one another that are sobering to the soul. It is one thing to reconcile these things with God, but another to square it with yourself.

Chocolat. Pour vous.

-yeah, we’ll see.

Long & happy lives in peace.

Go for Broke follows several Japanese American men and women whose lives are forever altered by WWII, from the families forcefully relocated to internment camps to the members of the 442nd, the most decorated infantry regiment in American military history. Go for Broke is a story of identity and loyalty, of resilience and sacrifice, and of what it takes to believe in a country that doesn’t believe in you.
