The 442 Regimental Combat Team is the most decorated unit of it's size in American history.

 

"The unit earned more than 18,000 awards in less than two years, including 9,486 Purple Hearts and 4,000 Bronze Star Medals. The unit was awarded eight Presidential Unit Citations (five earned in one month). Twenty-one of its members were awarded Medals of Honor."

I worked with John Udaka who served in that unit and survived though barely. A truly great American from a generation that will never be equaled.
