Historical Record of Chinese Americans | Chinese-American Veterans of World War II Are Awarded a Congressional Gold Medal Collectively
2018, as a result of Congress passing and the President signing Public Law 115-337, the Congressional Gold Medal, our nation’s highest honor, will be presented to these individuals of Chinese ancestry who served honorably at any time during the period December 7, 1941, and ending December 31, 1946. The Chinese American WW II Veterans Recognition Project seeks to recognize, honor, and celebrate these largely forgotten men and women who served our country with great dignity and pride. Please ask the veterans or their descendants to register at www.caww2.org so they may be considered for the high honor.
