James Tani JillllllY Lovell's Keynote Address 20 YEARS BEFORE AND AFTER Mr. Chairman, Fellow Club Members, Guests and Friends: It is on occasions such as these and at the frequent get-togethers we have in our social groups and chapter meetings that we realize the number of years we have been together and it seems that all of a sudden it adds up to 20 years. History is defined as a narrative of events, a tale, a story, a record of facts, a systematic written account of events and also as something that belongs to the past. As we recall events in our history and especially in those earlier years, we find a record of these events in scrap books, libraries, our own Ambassadors in Anns and in the War Department files. I believe that history has a greater value for us if it serves to point up what we did, for it is the study imd review of these events that will point up better things to do and better ways of doing them. Things that were so serious to us in those early years are now the cause of jest and joking as we sit around and reminisce. The experiences and relationships developed s urely gave us a better understanding of our fellow man and his ideals and philosophies. Most of us entered the service during a time of national emergency but before the entry of our country into the Second World War. I think at this time, we should remember all of those people who had such great concern for your welfare and your status as Ameri cans of Japanese ancestry. This relates particularly to our Declaration of War on Japan. The possibilities of landings in Hawaii and the deployment of American troops on various islands in the Pacific with the islands of.Japan as the ultimate objective. General Herron, Commander General Hawaii Department, had great faith as evidenced by his desire to have Japanese Americans included in the Draft and to have Reserve Officers serve on active duty in his command. General Walter Short felt very much the same and was highly pleased with your conduct at the Reception Center and your performance with the 298th, 299th, the Engineers, and other units where you were assigned in smaller num bers . To this list, of course, we must add General Kendall Fielder, G2; Mr. Bob Shivers of the F.B.I.; Colonel Bicknell, Army Counter Espionage; Hung Wai Ching, r epresenting a civilian group and, of course, this list could go on at some length, for there are many others such as Sam King, Joe Farrington; Les Deacon and Charles Hemmingway who played a part in earning the opportunity for you all to serve not only for garrison duty but for actual combat. Little did we realize when the 298th was pulled back into Schofield in late May of 1942 that in a few days we would all be organized into a provisional battalion and sent for further training on the mainland U. S. I shall never forget the concern of many of you as the train pulled into Camp McCoy passing the barbed wire prison compound for German prisoners. I think there were many who thought they had ben sold down the river and had simply been transported this far from hom~ to be placed behind barbed wire. ThiS, of course, was all cleared up within a very short time as inspection groups from these ::'econd Army Head quarters began arriving and I would say that over the next three months, we were probably the most inspectedendtestedunitintheU. S. Army. This continued for some time and was highlighted by a surprise arrival of some 60 Officers from Sixth Corps Headquarters who arrived, about midnight and ordered a complete series of field exercises to be conducted the following morning. It happened that the weather was around 16 below zero and yet you men gave an outstanding performance as each company went through its exercise. It was during thesedaysatCampMcCoythat we had our first real contact with the general public and with military people who were not as understanding as those with whom we had been working. I can truly say that it was in the handling of these relations and during these days thaJ Colonel. Turner pr9bably performed one of the greatest services for you men that he was able to do during th~ time he served with you. I felt so sincere about this that in my recommendation for his Legion of Merit, this point was emphatically stated. I am also confident that many of the visits by military people and news photographers were purely from a curiosity standpoint and I also feel that General Ben Lear was most anxious to have a look himself except that a single Battalion hardly warranted the visit. About this same time, of course, a platoon from Baker Company was basking in the sun on Ship Island in the Gulf of Mexico. Their adventure is one of the most fantastic stories of the war and is almost unbelievable unless you know the person Who's telling it. I recom mend that sometime you get one of the boys from that platoon to relate his experienc.es for you. Shortly after the first of the year in 1943, the battalion moved to Camp Shelby in Hattes burg, Mississippi. And after i short stay there, we went on to maneuvers in Louisiana and Texas and we can well remember the times spent there because of the snakes, chiggers, pine knots, armadilos and rivers. Shortly after our return to Camp Shelby for maneuvers, our next experiences were two train rides -- the first a.long one from Shelby to Camp Kilmer, New Jersey; and the second from Kilmer to Brooklyn. You all remember the few days at Camp Kilmer when only half of the organization had a chance to use the passes that were issued for we were alerted before many of you could even leave tbe' area. The departure for North Africa brought one of the real laughs from the war, for as you know, at the minute the alert was on, all passes were cancelled, telephone service was shut off and the telegraph office closed down and yet on our first night at sea, Secretary of War Stimson announced over the radio that the first contingent of American-Japanese soldiers had sailed for North Africa. I am sure that we sailed to North Africa on the greatest gambling ship that's ever been afloat. The specialties were crap shooting and poker and the money changed hands quickly and often. Our stay in North Africa was short but did offer many interesting events such as living in a cork forest and observing Arabs and their actions and meeting and being as signed to the 34th DiviSion. Our landing in Italy was effected u,lder better conditions than we expected and it was sev eral days before we ran into our first action at the town of Chiusano. The highlights of the balance of the war can be best summed up by simply naming events, places and circum stances, such as rivers, valleys, mountains, mud, the arrival of the 442nd, Menton, 92nd DiviSion, the return to Italy and finally arrival back home. I know that all of these actions can be read in histories and files of individuals and you can be spared the ordeal of having to hear it all again, but I do want to make a few observations about the men in general over the past few years. Shortly after the return of most members of the battalion, new officers to the club were elected and we acquired a Headquarters BuildingonNuuanu Avenue and this was to be our home until the building committee completed plans and erected the present .club house. I think the club house and the activities of the Club probably more than anything else have held our club together and given us the opportunity of closer fraternization than would hav~ otherwise been possible. It has given us an opportunity to perform many community services, such as various fund drives, blood bank assistance, participation in veterans affairs, and our own' club activities for our families. Over these past 20 years, many of you have gained religion. You have assumed new re sponsibilities which has made you grow in stature. You have participated individually in community affairs and have taken on added family responsibilities, but above all, you have confirmed the faith that so many had in you as well as proving your loyalty and establish ing yourself with your fellowmen in states that formerly would have been against us. You and your fellowmen from the 442nd are certainly one of the key factors in helping to gain. Statehood for Hawaii. This pretty well brings us up to date, so now let's take a look at the future. Twenty years ago today, you averaged about 28 years of age. This means at the end of the next 20 years, you will average 68 years -- not a very pleasant thought, is it? How shall we spend these next 20 years and what's ahead for us to do? Some of you may recall that I spoke to you about a year ago on our continuing service and I mentioned four particuJar points which I think I should review. These points were all concerning the development of a Senior States man. The first point I spoke of was serving in a religious way and I pointed out that there was a spiritual awakening in America as we are constantly aware that our coins say "In God w,e Trust," our pledge of allegiance speaks of "This Nation Under God," and mail cancella tions say "Pray for Peace," and our ultimate good to humanity in our everyday work is tantamount to serving God. We welcom'ed God and asked for Him during battle -- we should serve Him now. Secondly, I spoke of serving in schools and educational matters. I'm sure you all realize that with the welfare of your children at stake, P. T .A.' s, school curriculum and all school functions should be of extreme interest to you. It is also important that you teach your children the importance more than ever today that education plays in his or her future and most important the system of automatic promotion in school does not carryon through life. Next, I would like to mention the third point -- that of community service and this could be participation in your political party, as a member of your community association and as an active participant in your annual fund drives as well as membership in service clubs . . The fourth point I made was that you serve yourself and your family by first maintaining_ good health so that you Will be able to care for them, second by improving your job per formance to gain greater position for yourself and providing recreation and relaxation that will bring them many great pleasures. There is another point roday that I think is of real importance that we do something about, as it affects each of us and nur business, government and all activities in which we parti Cipate. Economic illiteracy.ls fatal to the survival of American society. Our human freedoms as reflected in our democratic form of government depend upon the decision making of millions of individual citizens. Our living standard, so long the envy of other peoples, can grow no faster than the soundest of economic decisions made by our people. Finally, our ability to meet our obligations abroad and to defend ourselves rests to a large degree on economic wisdom at home. Today, we find ourselves and our system challenged at every level. On the personal level, a typical American's economic responsibilities are larger and they are more complicated. In general, he finds himself spending more, bor rowing more and lending and investing more widely. Evidence mounts that we have failed to train many of our people for this burdened responsibility. I believe the need for economic' knowledge is growing rapidly and I fear th!'ot this need Is not widely enough recognized, nor Its implications adequately understood. The complexity of our economic affairs grows with institutions. Businesses are bigger, so are labor un ions, so are our local, state and federal governments. Our personal lives no less than our public ones require economic decisions. Resources, be they money or time or any of the other scarce things of life, must be allocated. Our communities, our state and our natj.onal government present increasingly complicated economic issues for the electorat~'s decl skon. Finally, we face a sharp and perhaps ultimate challenge from abroad. Our .economy must prove Its ability to compete in world markets and free men in a democratlc.s~clety must prove Its superiority to a collectivist society. Economic literacy must reach a ma jority of our people Ifweareto flourish. We must have this knowledge if we are to manage our economic lives wisely. We must have it to shoulder our responsibilities as citizens. In these coming years, we should constantly keep before us our motto for continuing ser vice as a guide to where this club is going. We have an opportunity to develop a further closeness among ourselves and families as w.e develop new segments of the club which promote greater activity and include more participation by the family gro\lJl. Unless we maintain this type of participation, there will be no further growth for the club as we are a dwindling group from the standpoint of our Inability to take In new members. Consequent ly, our strength lies In the participation of the auxiliary groups such as the wives and children. Let us always be mindful that this service must be one to the Community and the people within it and not one for ourselves alone. I believe there is great hope for all of us In these 20 years as we continue to grow Individually, assuming greater responsibilities In our jobs and In the community and sharing our true values with our fellowmen. In our years of experience, it can never be said that you will have falled In reaching your objective or in not coming through as expected. History repeats itself and I know that you men will in this next 20 years continue to function as you have In the past and it Is my hope that In 1982, your speaker will be able to say that th~ pait 20 years have been one in which the men of the looth Battalion have fulfilled their mottO ~or continuing service. 24 BnIlV1I1k" ""-.

Also James Kiyota of Hilo and Hideshi NHmi of Charlie Chapter. Users were Mrs. Fusayo Iri guchi (Maui) and Mrs. HaJime Kodama (B). It is e~ncouraging to note that our blood bank is being utilized fully in spite of the widely publicized family blood bank system. Club now has 150 units in reserve. Donations Received: D.A. V. recently donated $50.00 for the appreciation of use of our hall. A handsome championship trophy for the Club 100 Bowling League has been donated by the Central Pacific Bank. Luau Report: More than 1,100 Next of Kin, members, wives, children and friends of Club 100 attended our ,20th Anniversary Luau which 'was held at Ft. DeRuny on Saturday, Jl!!le 2. The Luau this year was one of the best we ever had in recent years. The weather was fine, the set ting was bea!ltiful, the Master of Ceremonies did a splendid job. James Lovell's keynote address, "20 years before and after" was inspiring, fo od was delicious and plentiful. Lots of parking space 'and everything" went on s moothly . . Specia}fr"ecognition sh~uld bl' given to our hardworki'ng co-chafrmen, 1'akeichi Miyashiro and Robert Takato of Charlie Chapter and the representatives from each chapter, plus Rinky Nakagawa who worked really hard for the entertainment portion. Dues Committee: This committee headed by our Assistant Treasurer, Etsuo Katano, is doing a fine Job. At this moment, there are approximately 450 members already paid up their dues. for 1962. It is especially gratifying to note that many so called long time inactives suddenly paid up their back dues as well as" capital funds to become active members. Apartment Report: Since our Kamoku Apartments were built about 3 years ago, painting (internally as well as externally) is badly needed to make the appearance more attractive. In spite of our des perate efforts, we still have two vacancies (l I-BR and 1 studio) at present. The Manager was forced to ask one very undesirable tenant to vacate some months ago. At present our tenants in general are good. The manager was instructed not to discrimi nate any person who applies for the apartment as long as he or she is qualified under our rules and regulations. It was reported previously that a loan of $130,000 was arranged with the Central Pacific Bank and weare currently paying back $1,302.50 monthly. However, on two different occasions, the Apartment Management Committee unanimously voted to apply its excess of $5;000 ancf$3,OOO to our loan at Central Pacific Bank. About $2,000 was transferred to the general fund to maintain our operation. As of May 31, 1962, we have the balance of $95,589.31. Cash in bank $3,645.62. Japan Tour Report: The real planning for the Japan Tour by the members of Club 100 started about a year ago. 1 Immediately contacted several Airlines for plane fare and received the most attractive offer from P.A.A. With this Information, we called a meeting at the Clubhouse. Later on, it was decided to form a committee to look Into other phases of the tour and obtain more Information. Committee members (all volunteers) are: Gary Uchida, Cal Shlmogaki, Shi nobu TofukuJi, Walter Morlguchl, James Kawashima, Stu Yoshioka, Franc~s Okazaki, Ronald Higashi and yours truly. We were told that P.A.A. Jet accommodates not more than 159 passengers. At present there are 17 persons on the waiting list. Members are remind ed that the full payment must be made by July 9, 1962. Breakdown: Plane Fare $388.00 (round trip) Ground Tour 368.00 (23 days @ $16.00 a day) Contingency Fund ~ $766.00 In order to visit the Imperial Palace, Mr. Ishikawa, Pr.esldent of the Teisan Auto Co. of Japan, requested the following Information: Members' name, age and occupation. Shiseido Cosmetic Co., one of the several companies that are entertaining us in Japan, wrote us as follows: "In commemorating the scheduled visit of the members of your 100th Battalion Club to Japan, we are now planning a television program on your honored club. The idea of this program was born out of our desire to Introduce the glorious 100th Battalion Club to the Japanese public, and we expect that this program will be telecast on Culture Day, November 3 (Saturday), In Japan and during the Christmas holidays In Hawaii. The details of this program are now under study and w1ll be forwarded to you later on. Your coopera tion In this regard will be very much appreciated. Operation Mrs. Nashiwa: Mrs. Ed Nashlwa (Maul) has been confined to the hospital bed for the second time in recent months. She Is at the Queen's Hospital and w1ll have an open heart surgery very shortly. We, along especially with the members of the ftne Valley Island Chapter, wish her a very successful operation. Anyone wishing to contact Ed, please call 771-223. Operation ROdney: Rodney Taketa, son of George Taketa (Hawaii) Is also having his second open heart sur gery at the Minneapolis Hospital in Minnesota. Rodney's case Is very serious one because he has two holes in his heart. Rodney is accompanied by his mother, Mrs. Taketa. The entire membership of Club 100 wish Rodney a very sucr.essful operation. Mrs. Fumlko Enchi, one of the top women writers In Japan toaay, visited Hawaii recently to gather material for the article to be written In the Sankel Newspaper of Japan. Club 100 with several Gold Star parents helped her tremendously. Mr. Chris Nakama of the 44lnd Veterans Club also attendedJ:o help her.
