Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum was honored to be one of only seven museums in the country to host the Congressional Gold Medal, awarded to Nisei World War II veterans in recognition of their exceptional service, sacrifice and loyalty to America. The limited-run exhibition, American Heroes: Japanese-American WWII Nisei Soldiers and the Congressional Gold Medal, shared the inspiring story of men who fought with bravery and valor on the battlefields of Europe and Asia, even as many of their loved ones back home were held in internment camps.
