[Not quite. The 100th Battalion came from Hawaiian Japanese (former HNG men) and from internment camps, and came first. They regarded themselves as better than the 442nd, which followed, and there was tension between them. The 442nd did come from internment camps. The 442nd still exists, and I believe one of its battalions is the 100th.
