World War Two Lost Battalion veterans reunite

In late October, 1944 the first battalion of the US 141st Infantry Regiment, comprised mostly of men from the Texas National Guard, broke through German lines in northeastern France and then found themselves cut off and surrounded by the enemy. They became known as "The Lost Battalion" and would have been killed or captured had it not been for a heroic rescue operation carried out by the mostly Japanese-American soldiers of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. Around 40 aging veterans from both units came together in Houston on November first for what may be the last time. VOA's Greg Flakus was there and filed this report.
