By REYNOLDS PACKARD United Press Staff Correspondent WITH THE 56TH ARMY IN ITALY, Oct..3 (Delayed) .—The first Japanese-American troops to go into battle in any theater of the present war are mostly from Hawaii. Many. of them are volunteers especially trained in the United States.

Burt Tanaka, from Koloa on Kauai island in the Hawaiians, soon put me straight. “You don't need to worry about us,” he told me. “We're glad ‘of this chance to show the world that descendants of Japanese are just as good and loyal American citizens as the descendants of Italians and Germans who are also over here fighting.” Tanaka, - who speaks - “perfect American,” is a graduate of San Diego high school and San Diego State college, - “We've been yelling for a chance to get over here and show what loyal, tough American soldiers we

In the Far East there also| is the danger that the Japanese might try tricks to get among us or | even pretend they are similar units, | “No, it's more practical for us to fight in Europe. But we are willing to fight wherever the United States flag goes.” Pvt. Albert Shimazu, from Kealakekua, Hawaii, told me “we are really ready to fight. Just watch us before this show is over.” i
