100th Infantry Battalion Veterans Organization
100th Infantry Battalion Veterans
Education Center
The Education Center is a component of the 100th Infantry Battalion Veterans organization which was established in December 1945 under the name Club 100. Membership is comprised of veterans, their wives and widows, their descendants, eligible family, and honorary members. The Center is located in the clubhouse which was constructed by the 100th veterans in 1952 and has been in continual use ever since.
There is a small exhibit area with information about the battalion’s history and artifacts from World War II, a Memorial Wall made of Italian marble, engraved with the names of 100th Infantry Battalion men who gave their lives in the war, and a Roll Call video displaying the names of every man who served in the battalion. One display case is dedicated to the seven men of the 100th who received Medal of Honors for their actions in World War II and one for his actions in the Korean War. The resource room contains a collection of books about the Japanese American soldiers who fought in World War II, various 100th publications, and some battalion records.
