I got to meet Robert L. Scott during the 1990’s. This was at a historical society meeting in SE Georgia. Someone asked him what he thought of the Japanese pilots.

He simply said “they were fighting for their country just like I was fighting for mine”.

That is all he said. Probably nothing more needed saying.
