I don't know how long they'll have this, but I saw in a catalog from USPS this little item commemorating the Nisei Soldiers of WWII in American service.

The front

Inside front with timeline of the start of the war and the highlights of their service.

Intro page
The 100th Infantry Battalion (Separate) and it's time in Italy.
The 442nd Regimental Combat Team and it's "Lost Battalion" rescue of the Texans in France.

The combined campaigns of the two units, plus their artillery component, the 522nd FAB, which was at Dachau.

The interpreters in the Pacific as well as the Nisei WAC's, who performed all manner of services, and were not segregated like their male counterparts.

The 1399th Engineer Construction Battalion who were stationed on Oahu to build on that island.

The story of the stamp design.

 

One more thing.


The stamp sheet that comes with the booklet. I'm glad I found this and hope you agree. It cost me $39.95 plus $1.40 shipping and handling.
