I am in charge of bringing an exhibit to Maui, Hawaii, (where I live),
entitled The German Roots of Zionism. It will be on display for 3 months at
our local Nisei Veterans Memorial Center, probably starting August 2018. We
are trying to tie the exhibit in with a Hawaiian-Japanese theme as well. The
522nd Field Artillery Battalion was activated February 1, 1943, at Camp
Shelby, Mississippi, as part of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. The unit
was comprised of both mainland and Hawaii Japanese Americans. It is best
known for liberating some of the Dachau sub-camps.

I would therefore like to make contact with anyone who has personal
information (documents, photos, testimonials, etc.) about Jews liberated
from Dachau sub-camps by the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion. We would like
to display such personal items in a display case for the duration of the
exhibit.

Please contact me privately at elamj@.... Thank you.
