Summary

Description
English: Young-Oak Kim's final resting place at Punchbowl National Memorial Cemetery. It can be found at the Columbaria Courts section 6-G Row 100. The abbreviations relate to awards received, Distinguished Service Cross (DSC), Silver Star (SS) with Oak Leaf Cluster (OLC), Bronze Star Medal (BSM), Purple Heart (PH) with 2 Oak Leaf Clusters (OLC). 'Go For Broke' refers to the 442d RCT's motto, and illustrates his lifelong affiliation with the Japanese American community and the 442d RCT's legacy as a segregated unit rather than his distinction as the first Asian-American commander of a combat battalion with the 31st INF in Korea.
