There was a debate on here about UK squaddies killing non combatants which split opinion. This guy was a f****n serial killer. I find it difficult to admire or sympathise with him. The same Japanese mindset led to UK troops amongst others to be starved and sadistically tortured sometimes for years on end. Not something to hold up as a beacon of honour. Got to agree with that ,,,I understand it's an interesting story but he lasted so long because he was a fanatical ,ideologue ,brainwashed by an evil ,malignant regime ,he didn't wage war for all those years ,he just hid like vermin and killed innocent people ..there was nothing admirable about the slanty eyed little twat 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOMO 29,110 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 have you herd this story mac...don't know how true it is.. so a group of alide service men were captured...the Japanese believed them to be spies ...so we're tried found guilty..and we're to be executed .... then a group of British came forward and said actually it was us not those other chaps... the brits were then tried and found guilty....and sentenced to death...the others were freed I believe... British government fought for them but failed...and they were executed.. by having there heads chopped off..the Japanese believing this to be an honorable death... apparently the jap jailers were all wanting to look after the brits in the prison because of there honour at coming forward and doing the right thing 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mackem 29,848 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 I haven't heard of that TOMO, funny people the Japanese, quite brutal the older generation, during WW2 they believed their emperor a living god, I remember reading the true story of the newspaper competition between two officers to chop off 100 heads in battle, the vast majority were captured prisoners in reality.

I knew a lot of ex POWs who were members of the same ex service club in which I was a member. To a man they would not talk about their experiences under the japs. But they were all bitter and never forgave. One of the guys was nicknamed the 'gannet'. He used to sweep the crumbs off the table after we had finished our dinner and eat them. He would ratch in the bins for any discarded sandwiches. After being reduced to skin and bones during the war he could not bear to see food wasted. He came round to my house once and I showed him the various pets I had. I had rabbits which came to be fed at the wire netting. He was really upset and thought they were hungry. After that he regularly brought me piles of grass to feed them. Another guy would get really upset with anybody that bought Japanese produce. He would complain that if you bought Japanese you were a f****n traitor. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jukel123 9,604 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 In the book "All Quiet on the Western Front", there's a line which goes something like " a word of command makes a country your enemy, a word of command then makes them your friends". It aint like that for ex Japanese POWs. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
