100th Infantry Battalion Veterans - Club 100

10/08/2026

On September 27, we gathered at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific - Punchbowl for the 2026 Joint Memorial Service to honor the U.S. soldiers of World War II who served in the 100th Infantry Battalion, 442nd Regimental Combat Team (RCT), Military Intelligence Service (MIS), and 1399th Engineer Construction Battalion, who died during World War II or have since passed away.

We are grateful to Pacific Historic Parks for funding the videography and helping us share the legacy of the 100th, 442nd, MIS, and 1399th in a truly world-class fashion. Their courage, sacrifice, and service continue to inspire us. Preserving their stories ensures that their legacy will live on for generations to come.

Please take a moment to watch, remember, and share this service with others so that the legacy of these remarkable American soldiers of Japanese ancestry continues to be remembered and honored.

Mahalo nui loa to everyone who helped make the 2026 Joint Memorial Service on September 27 a meaningful tribute to the soldiers of the 100th Infantry Battalion, 442nd Regimental Combat Team, Military Intelligence Service, and 1399th Engineer Construction Battalion.

On behalf of the 100th Infantry Battalion Veterans (Club 100), thank you to the more than 300 people who attended, our program participants, volunteers, supporters, and everyone who helped honor and remember the World War II soldiers of the 100th, 442nd, MIS, and 1399th.

The service came together with the “military precision” worthy of the men who gave so much for us. We are especially grateful that Hurricane Nolo moved away from the islands, allowing us to gather as planned.

We have published a summary and photos of Saturday’s floral and flag decoration of the gravesites and Sunday’s Joint Memorial Service. We invite you to read and share the article: https://www.100thibv.org/post/joint-memorial-service-2026

Mahalo to everyone who joined us for the 2026 Joint Memorial Service this morning at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific - Punchbowl. We are deeply grateful to everyone who attended and helped make this year’s service a meaningful and memorable tribute to the men of the 100th Infantry Battalion, 442nd Regimental Combat Team, Military Intelligence Service, and 1399th Engineer Construction Battalion who gave their lives during World War II and those who have since passed on.

A special mahalo to all of our participants, speakers, musicians, 100th Battalion, 442nd Infantry Regiment Honor Guard, floral presenters, volunteers, and the many people who worked behind the scenes to make the service possible. Your time, energy, and dedication are truly appreciated.

We were delighted to see 442nd RCT veteran, Tadao Yoshimoto, taking part in this year's Joint Memorial Service. As the years go by, we are seeing fewer of our veterans able to attend in person. It makes our responsibility to carry forward their legacy even more important. We are grateful to the families, descendants, friends, and community members who continue to come together to remember them and share their legacy throughout the year.

Mahalo to the 442nd Veterans Club, 442nd Legacy Center, Sons and Daughters of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, and Military Intelligence Service Veterans Hawaiʻi organizations for joining Club 100 in presenting this year’s service.

To everyone who attended, whether you have been coming for years or joined us for the first time — in person or in thought — thank you for being there and helping us remember.
