October 16, 2021
To: New England Chinese American World War II Veterans
I am deeply honored to congratulate all New England Chinese American World War II Veterans
on your award of the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest award bestowed upon civilians by
the United States Congress.
Embedded in our Massachusetts history is that George Washington was the nation’s very first
recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal, awarded on March 25, 1776, by the Second
Continental Congress for the Liberation of Boston.
You proudly served as Americans in the face of discrimination of the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act,
not repealed until December 1943. You are a part of our rich New England heritage of defending
freedom and liberty. You are Unsung Heroes, finally recognized and honored over 76 years post-
World War II.

MESSAGE FROM
U.S. SENATOR MAZIE K. HIRONO
In honor of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance
Boston Lodge’s New England Regional
Congressional Gold Medal Award Ceremony
October 16, 2021
Aloha and welcome to all of you attending the Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston
Lodge’s New England Regional Congressional Gold Medal Award Ceremony.
During World War II, more than 18,000 Chinese Americans bravely answered the call to action
and risked their lives to defend this country. At the same time, these courageous service
members faced discrimination back home, and when they returned from the war, their
contributions were not adequately or appropriately recognized, as is too often the case for
minority service members.
Today marks a step in the right direction as we honor our living veterans, and the families of
those who are no longer with us. I am proud to have been a lead co-sponsor of the Chinese
American World War II Veterans Congressional Gold Medal (CGM) Act in 2018, and I am glad
to see the law turn into action and celebration as we are finally able to honor the distinguished
service of these heroes.
Mahalo to the Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge for putting on this event and
honoring these veterans today. To all the medal recipients and families commemorating this
momentous occasion, I join a grateful nation in thanking you for your service to our country.
Aloha,
A
Mazie K. Hirono
United States Senator

Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge

Boston, MA 02111
Dear Friends,
It is with great enthusiasm that I extend a warm welcome to those gathered at
the Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge for the 2021 New
England Regional Congressional Gold Medal Award Ceremony. It is my honor
to congratulate the heroic Chinese American men and women being recognized today for their brave service
in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War II.
Today’s ceremony is especially meaningful to me because my father, Judson Chu, served in the Army
during World War II as a Radio Communications Sergeant in Okinawa. He was one of the 20,000 Chinese
Americans who signed up to serve in World War II despite facing gross racial discrimination at home,
including the hateful Chinese Exclusion Act that remained in place until 1943. It is long overdue that we
recognize the tremendous patriotism, courage, and sacrifice of our Chinese American World War II
veterans, which is why I worked with my Congressional colleagues to pass the Chinese American World
War II Veteran Congressional Gold Medal Act into law. To those being honored today, I share the thanks
of a grateful nation. You have earned this honor, and I join with your families and communities when I say
that you make us all proud.
I would also like to thank the Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge for hosting today’s
ceremony and for their ongoing leadership and hard work to empower Chinese Americans. Since its
founding in 1895, the Chinese American Citizens Alliance has been instrumental in advocating for the civil
rights and well-being of Chinese Americans across the nation.
On behalf of the United States House of Representatives and the people of California’s 27 th Congressional
District, I again extend my congratulations and deep gratitude to the Chinese American veterans being
honored today for their service to our country during World War II.
Sincerely,
JUDY CHU, Ph.D.
Member of Congress, 27 th District

October 16, 2021
Dear Honored Guests,
I am honored to join you for the presentation of the Congressional Gold Medal to
Chinese American World War II Veterans. Today, we celebrate the bravery of the 20,000
Chinese Americans that served in the U.S. Armed Forces during the Second World War, and all
those who risked their lives to defend our nation—even in the face of prejudice.
Although Chinese Americans have served in the United States military since the Civil
War, at the time that the United States entered the Second World War Chinese immigrants and
Chinese Americans were facing significant discrimination, harassment, and violence in the
United States. Nonetheless, when WWII broke out, Chinese Americans answered the call.
Nearly 20,000 Chinese Americans enlisted to serve in every theater of war, distinguishing
themselves not only through exemplary combat service, but also through their work delivering
medical care, gathering and analyzing intelligence, providing signal and communication support,
and securing and delivering supplies. The work of certain units, like the decorated “Flying
Tigers” fighter group and the 14 th Air Service Group, the first all-Chinese American Signal
Corps, garnered particular decoration for their valor and execution of crucial missions. Chinese
American women also played a critical role in the war effort, serving as nurses, pilots, air traffic
controllers, flight trainers, and various other roles through the Women’s Army Corps (WAC), the
Army Air Force, and the United States Naval Reserve Women’s Reserve.
Though they faced great discrimination at home, Chinese Americans served their country
honorably and with great distinction. This Congressional Gold Medal is but one in a number of
well-deserved awards that Chinese Americans have earned for their service in WWII. Again, it is
my honor to join you tonight to recognize the bravery and patriotism of these veterans. Let us
never forget the valor and sacrifice shown during the Second World War and commemorate their
service today.
Sincerely,
MARK TAKANO
Member of Congress

September 1, 2021
We must forever remember, honor, and pay tribute to our Chinese
American World War II Veterans.
Of the 20,000 Chinese Americans who served in World War II,
approximately 40% were non-United States citizens – yet they proudly
served as Americans in spite of the discriminatory aspects of the 1882
Chinese Exclusion Act, not repealed until December 1943.
Chinese Americans were predominately integrated into the U.S. Armed
Services and served in every theater of war on land, sea, and in the air.
They made known to the American public the skills, competencies,
loyalty, and patriotism of Chinese Americans. They paved the way for
future generations to be in Mainstream America and live the American
Dream.
Chinese American World War II Veterans were largely forgotten,
ignored, and excluded. The award of the Congressional Gold Medal
gives long-overdue recognition and honor to our Chinese American
World War II Veterans. Let us preserve their legacy for current and
follow-on generations.

The Congressional Gold Medal for
Chinese American World War II Veterans
By Maj. Gen. Bill Chen, U.S. Army Retired
The Congressional Gold Medal is an award bestowed by the United States
Congress, and is Congress’s highest expression of national appreciation for
distinguished achievements and contributions by individuals or as a group.
On May 4, 2017, bills were introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives and
the U.S. Senate for the award of the Congressional Gold Medal, collectively, to
Chinese American veterans of World War II. Representatives Ed Royce (R-CA) and
Ted Lieu (D-CA) were lead co-sponsors to H.R. 2358 on the House side; and
Senators Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) and Thad Cochran (R-MS) were lead cosponsors
of S. 1050 on the Senate side.
The bills were the result of a campaign organized by the Chinese American Citizens
Alliance to recognize Chinese American servicemen and servicewomen who served
when the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was still in place – they fought for their
country in the face of discrimination and injustice. After passage of the Senate
and House bills by unanimous consent, Public Law 115-337, The Chinese American
World War II Veteran Congressional Gold Medal Act, was enacted on December
20, 2018.
Chinese American World War II Veterans served in every theater of war and in
every branch of the services: Army, Army Air Forces, Marine Corps, Navy, Coast
Guard, and Merchant Marine. In contrast to other minority groups like Japanese
Americans and African Americans, Chinese Americans were predominately
integrated into the U.S. Armed Services. The only all-Chinese American units were
the 14 th Air Service Group and the 987 th Signal Company assigned to the China
Burma India theater.
Obverse and reverse side of the Chinese American
World War II Congressional Gold Medal
The obverse side of the medal has images of servicemen in all branches of the
services and a female nurse to represent the service of Chinese American women
in the armed services. Also inscribed on the obverse side is “Proudly Served as
Americans.” The reverse side shows how Chinese Americans fought in World War
II – on land, sea, and air with images of the Sherman tank, battleship USS Missouri,
and the P-40 fighter of “Flying Tigers” fame; with a 48-star American flag serving as
a backdrop.
The Speaker of the Award Ceremony on December 9, 2020, some 75 years after
the end of World War II, officially awarded the Congressional Gold Medal to
Chinese American World War II Veterans, finally recognizing and honoring Chinese
American World War II Veterans.

Congratulations to our Chinese American World War II Veterans, Families, and Friends!
It is our great honor to welcome you to the New England (NE) Chinese American World War II Veterans
Congressional Gold Medal (CGM) Award Ceremony at the Cradle of Liberty, Boston’s historic Faneuil
Hall. The first Congressional Gold Medal was awarded by the Continental Congress to General George
Washington on March 25, 1776 for the liberation of Boston from British occupation on March 17, 1776..
One year after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, General George Washington returned to
Boston on July 4, 1777 and toasted the new nation on its first birthday at Faneuil Hall.
UNSUNG HEROES
By Maj. Gen. Bill Chen, U.S. Army Retired
Unsung Heroes is a commemorative book sponsored and published by the
Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge that highlights the involvement
and contributions of Chinese American World War II Veterans. The articles in the
book are authored by subject experts on notable veterans and by sons, daughters,
and grandchildren of the veterans. The book coverage spans pre-war activities,
World War II, and post-war activities and also pays tribute to veterans of New
England States and veterans whose next-of-kin reside in New England. The book
gives long overdue recognition and honor to these veterans, as they have largely
been forgotten and ignored.
The book also covers the advocacy for award and passage of the Chinese
American Congressional Gold Medal Act, Public Law 115-337. As stated in the
public law, the veterans’ “commitment and sacrifice demonstrates a highly
uncommon and commendable sense of patriotism in the face of discrimination.”
Please visit: www.cacaboston.org for more information on Unsung Heroes
and the book synopsis order form. An Addendum to Unsung Heroes will be
published subsequent to the New England Regional Congressional Gold Medal
Ceremony to include short biographies of newly registered New England veterans
and a photo journey of C.A.C.A. Boston Congressional Gold Medal award
ceremonies. The Addendum will be free for all who purchased Unsung Heroes.
Chinese Americans have a distinguished, patriotic and long history of U.S. military service since the Civil
War. On July 26, 1862, Guangzhou-born Joseph Pierce enlisted in the Connecticut Volunteer Infantry
that became part of the 2nd Army Corps of the Army of the Potomac. On May 16, 1864, Shanghai-born
Edward Day Cohota of Gloucester enlisted with the 23rd Massachusetts Infantry, also part of the Army of
the Potomac. Over 500 Chinese Americans from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Rhode Island and Vermont served bravely and honorably in all branches of the U.S. military and in all
theaters during World War II; thousands have served since and continue today as represented by members
of the American Legion Chinatown Post 328, Major Jennifer Ng and her brother Major Christopher Ng.
We would like to thank former Monterey Park Mayor Betty Chu. Chu, the first Chinese American woman
licensed to practice law in California, wrote the first of many drafts and proofread the final bill H.R. 2358
to honor and recognize the 20,000 Chinese American World War II Veterans with a Congressional Gold
Medal. Congressman Ed Royce submitted H.R. 2358 and Senator Tammy Duckworth submitted the
concurring bill S. 1050 on May 4, 2017. S. 1050 passed in the U.S. Senate on September 12, 2018. H.R.
2358 passed in the U.S. House of Representatives on December 12, 2018. The Chinese American World
War II Veterans Congressional Gold Medal Act was signed into law by President Donald J. Trump on
December 20, 2018, 3 days after the 75 th Anniversary of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act on
December 17, 1943. The Congressional Gold Medal would not have happened without the leadership of
C.A.C.A. National, Past National President Edmond Gor, Retired U.S. Army Major General William S.
Chen, Retired U.S. Army Major General Robert G. Lee, Retired U.S. Air Force Major General Darryl
Wong and Retired U.S. Army Major General Stephen Tom, who are all C.A.C.A. Boston lodge members.
