Title:
Running the obstacle course. A squad of Nisei soldiers are shown leaping over an open trench. The 442nd combat team at Camp
Shelby is composed entirely of Americans of Japanese descent who volunteered for services in the armed forces. This unit of
approximately 8000 men is undergoing intensive training in all branches of combat duty, and they are looking forward with
eagerness to actual services at the front. --
