Tomi was a member of the famed highly decorated Japanese-American 442nd Regiment in World War II, which fought in Italy and southern France. The unit was known for its extraordinary determination and bravery, and coined the phrase, "Go for broke!", which meant they were going all in to win, no loss accepted.
