About Go for Broke! (1951)
Go For Broke! is a 1951 black-and-white war film directed by Robert Pirosh, produced by Dore Schary and starring Van Johnson and six veterans of the 442nd Infantry Regiment. The film stars Henry Nakamura, Warner Anderson and Don Haggerty in its large cast.
In 1943 at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, newly commissioned Lt. Michael Grayson reports for duty to train the 442nd Infantry Regiment, a unit established on the mainland and composed of Nisei. His expectation was to return to the U.S. 36th Infantry Division, a Texas National Guard unit, in which he had served as an enlisted soldier. He must command a group of people whom he sees as Japanese enemies rather than as Americans. Grayson runs his platoon in strict observance of military regulations. Arriving in Italy, the unit is joined by the 100th Battalion, a Nisei unit assembled in Hawaii before the formation of 442nd.
