The best known was the 442nd Infantry Regiment. Though called a "regiment", it was in fact twice as large as any other US regiment. All other US regiments had three battalions, while the 442nd had six. There was also the 100th Infantry Battalion, made up mostly of Japanese-Americans from Hawaii, which usually operated with the 442nd Infantry. These seven battalions were almost as large as a US infantry division, which had nine infantry battalions.
