The Story Of Lucy Mascot of the 442 Medics

Lucy: Mascot of the 442nd Medics tells the true story of Lucy, a stray dog who became the beloved mascot of the Nisei soldiers of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team's Third Battalion medics. Lucy's journey with the 442nd begins in the small, war-torn Italian town of Luciana in 1944. This book is about how she was adopted as a pup in Luciana, Italy, and her adventures with the 100th/442nd RCT. Brought to life through animation by legend Willie Ito, who has worked with Disney, Hanna Barbera, and Warner Brothers over his 50-year career. 

Written by Stacey Hayashi (Journey of Heroes) and illustrated by Animation Legend Willie Ito (Lady and the Tramp).
