Dedicated during the Veteran's Day Memorial weekend in 2000, this memorial pays tribute to the members of the 100th Battalion, 442nd RCT, MIS, and other units. The memorial also pays homage to the thousands of Japanese men and women who were imprisioned in American relocation camps from 1942-1945.
At the center of the memorial is a sculpture of a bronze crane by Nina A. Akamu. Rising above the confines of the memorial wall, the crane is meant to symbolize "rising beyond limitations".
