“...we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”

I highly encourage all Americans to read the Declaration of Independence today and every Fourth of July as a tribute to those who pledged their Lives, their Fortunes and their sacred Honor so that future generations could live free from tyranny. Take the opportunity that Independence Day affords to discuss, particularly with our children, the freedoms and rights we have been entrusted to uphold, and our responsibility as citizens to pass them on to future generations.

Remember, we are citizens, not subjects, and we must stay ever vigilant that we remain so.

Strength and Honor.

U.S. Army Private First Class William Kenzo Nakamura of Seattle, WA and U.S. Army Private First Class Frank H. Ono of Delta, CO were posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for their heroic actions on July 4, 1944, near Castellina, Italy.

Nakamura and Ono were born to Japanese immigrant parents and were Niseis, which means they were second-generation Japanese-American.

They both volunteered to be a part of the all-Nisei 442nd Regimental Combat Team, mostly made up of Japanese-Americans from Hawaii and the mainland. On July 4, 1944, near Castellina Marittima, Italy, Nakamura single-handedly destroyed an enemy machine gun placement and volunteered to cover his unit’s withdrawal. He was then killed while attacking another machine gun nest that was firing on his platoon and was posthumously awarded a Medal of Honor. Ono advanced ahead of his unit and single-handedly defended his position against an enemy counter-attack. He then braved intense hostile fire to aid two wounded comrades and voluntarily covered his unit's withdrawal when it became necessary to retreat.

Ono left the Army while still a private first class. He died in 1980 at age 56 and was buried in Highland Cemetery, North Judson, Indiana.

Both men were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for their actions during the battle. A 1990’s review of service records for Asian Americans who received the Distinguished Service Cross during World War II led to both men's awards being upgraded to the Medal of Honor.
