End of War
The war in Europe ends on May 8, 1945. There is no joyous celebration. With the prospect of going home, caution replaces recklessness and carefree attitudes.
The 522nd occupies a town in Germany; they guard a bridge and control traffic.
In November, Katsugo and others are homeward bound. The men spend Christmas and New Year’s in Los Angeles. Aboard the USS New Mexico, Katsugo sees the city lights of Honolulu and experiences a heartwarming return.
