Military history of Asian Americans From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Asian Americans have fought on behalf of the United States since the War of 1812 until today. Due to the small population of Asian Americans in the 19th Century their contributions were not heavily recorded. In the 20th Century as the population of Asian Americans have increased contributions and documentation of their contributions have increased in kind. Contents History 19th Century 20th Century Philippine-American War ... edit History edit 19th Century Map of Battle of New Orleans The first recorded history of Asian Americans fighting on behalf of the United States was recorded as far back as 1815 when General Andrew Jackson recorded "Manilamen" had fought alongside his in defense of New Orleans , under the command of Jean Baptiste Lafitte After this Asian Americans were not recorded in the annuls of U.S. Military History until the American Civil War when in 1861 a Chinese American by the name of John Tomney joined the New York Infantry eventually dying of wounds received at the Battle of Gettysburg Joseph Pierce (his chosen name) was brought to the United States from China by his adoptive father, Connecticut ship Captain Amos Peck. Pierce enlisted on July 26, 1862 and was mustered into the Fourteenth Regiment, Company F of the Connecticut Volunteer Infantry that became part of the Second Brigade of the Third Division, Second Army Corps of the Army of the Potomac. From 1862 to 1865, Pierce unknowingly participated in what turned out to be many of the pivotal military events of the war, fighting in the major campaigns from Antietam to Gettysburg to Lee's surrender at Appomattox Court House.

Asian/Pacific American Military Timeline [Sent to CHCP for Memorial Day, 1999 by Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute By Rudi Williams American Forces Information Service Until World War II, there had been little effort to document their contributions to United States history and culture.

6. KEC Journal: Yoroshiku Serving from 1999 to 2003, Army General Eric Shinseki of Hawaii became the first Asian American military chief of staff. The Nisei Japanese Americans (二世 pronounced Neesay http://kec-journal.com/2002/05/yoroshiku.html

Lagniappe from Hokkaido, Japan Main Yoroshiku A student asked me, "How do you say 'Yoroshiku onegaishimasu' in English?" I answered, "There's no such expression in English." "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu" literally means something like "I humbly ask you to be kind to me", but it has ambiguous yet good connotations. Quite Japanese , but this phrase implies your respect and politeness to the people you meet, your good will and determination. It is frequently used when meeting people for the first time, or joining a group. When you are introduced to a person/persons, and say "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu", it can be "Nice to meet you." If you entered my school (wow) and said so, it could be "I'll do my best, so please give me good teaching." To a new business partner, it means "Looking forward to doing business with you." Depending on the situations, it could mean "Please remember me," "Please take care of it," "I'll leave it to you," "Hope we can get along well," "You'll be sorry,"(?)... "Please say yoroshiku to Jim." is "Please say hello to Jim." ("Yoroshiku" only is a more casual form.) Don't you think it's a very convenient expression? Ambiguity is often the name of the game in Japan. And that could come as a difficulty in learning English.
