If you are asking about the 442nd Regimental Combat Team (RCT) that was almost entirely Japanese-Americans (Nisei) during the Second World War, then...Yes, other American troops that served in the vicinity or with them during the war did give them the respect that they earned & deserved. They were highly commended & awarded (as a unit & individually), in fact the most decorated unit for size & length of service in the combat zones.

When the United States entered World War II, the 29th Infantry moved to Iceland, where it defended the rocky coastline until shipped to England in preparation for the invasion of Europe. In December, 1944 the Regiment deployed to France where it provided security to the "Red Ball Express", the supply route which kept the armored thrust rolling into Germany. During the "Battle of the Bulge", the Regiment secured and defended river crossings along the Meuse River in the vacinity of Namur and Liege, Belgium. The Regiment saw heavy combat near Jemelle and Rochefore, Belgium and was then deactivated in October, 1946. The 29th was not attached to a division instead it had assignments requiring only the manpower size of a regiment rather than a division.
