No Sword to Bury: Japanese Americans in Hawai'i during World War II. By Franklin Odo. (Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 2004. viii, 328 pp. $39.50, ISBN 1-59213-207-3.)

Soon after the attack on Pearl Harbor, members of the Hawai'i Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) were told to report for duty. That afternoon the ROTC was re-formed as the Hawai'i Territorial Guard (HTG) and ordered to guard power plants and other vital installations. After a month, amidst suspicions of Japanese immigrants and their children—the Nisei—the HTG was disbanded and re-formed without the Nisei. Although disappointed and frustrated, many later joined the Varsity Victory Volunteers (VVV). Attached to a regiment in the Army Corps of Engineers, the 169 volunteers lived at an army base on Oahu and performed manual labor such as stringing barbed wire, quarrying rocks, and building roads. After a year, many joined the 442nd Regimental Combat Team or the Military Intelligence Service.
