good luck.....as good an ally they are now, the Japanese were the most blood thirsty bas**rds in WWII....made the Germans look like Girl Scouts when it came to how ther treated prisoners
I had an uncle and two cousins who were with the Royal Rifles of Canada in Hong Kong when it fell to the Japanese. Two of them survived the next few years as "guests" of the Imperial Japanese. One died there. They worked as slave labour for whatever the empire happened to want at the time and got often horrific abuse in return. Since the Japanese at that time were not signatories to the Geneva Convention, they figured that the prisoners were their theirs to use and treat however they wanted (execrable), and since these men had surrendered rather than die in battle, they were considered less than human beings to begin with. I have a great interest in Japanese history and culture, but they should understand if I don't have any sense of humour about PoW issues.
