His name was Hiroo Onoda and it was an island in the Philippines. His book, “My Thirty Year War” details his experience.

“The last Japanese soldier to surrender was on Guam in 1974.”

And the locals were getting really tired of that sucker stealing their eggs and laundry, killing their chickens,

At some point officials were concerned that he was going to get shot or fall into a boar trap (illegal of course).

Chamorro’s were on the lookout.
