Indoor dining at our local restaurants is off-limits at the time of this news posting, amid rising COVID-19 cases. We encourage your help in supporting these local restaurants (like Ming Wah, Frankie Doodle's, Dick's Hamburgers & the Sukiyaki Inn) who have supported our Japanese community for many, many years. Support them by ordering takeout or delivery food.
The new "Go For Broke" US Stamp will be released sometime this year. With this commemorative stamp, the Postal Service recognizes the contributions of Japanese American soldiers, some 33,000 altogether, who served in the U.S. Army during World War II.
The stamp, printed in the intaglio method, is based on a photograph. "Go For Broke" was the motto of the all-Japanese American 100th Infantry Battalion/442nd Regimental Combat Team and came to represent all Japanese American units formed during World War II. The stamp was designed by art director Antonio Alcalá. |
