Go For Broke National Education Center (GFBNEC) this week announced a new micro-exhibition, “Fire for Effect: Journey of the 522ndField Artillery Battalion,” which will be on display from June 7 to Aug. 25.
The exhibit will chronicle the contributions of the Japanese American World War II unit that earned the reputation as one of the quickest and most effective artillery units in the European Theater.
The 522ndwas activated in 1943 as part of the famed 442ndRegimental Combat Team and served as fire support during key moments in the European Theater including the battle at Hill 140, the liberation of Bruyères, France, and the rescue of the 141stInfantry Regiment’s “Lost Battalion.”
It then split from the 442ndand supported various infantry divisions to break the Siegfried Line, also liberating survivors from some satellite camps of the Dachau concentration camp. Images from the Susumu Ito and Fred Yasukochi collections from the Japanese American National Museum will be on view along with images from the 442ndLegacy Center.
“Fire for Effect” will be presented within GFBNEC’s “Defining Courage” exhibition, located in the historic Nishi Hongwanji Buddhist Temple building on the west side of the plaza at First Street and Central Avenue in Little Tokyo.
