Nisei generation is the second generation of the Japanese-Americans and also the term for the children of the Japanese immigrants in America who were forcibly evacuated from their homes due to the bombing on the Pearl Harbor by the Japanese. When the U.S. was already in command of the Pacific, the Nisei were accepted for U.S. military services.
