buried in the book "The Wartime Journa...Peter,<br />buried in the book "The Wartime Journals of Charles Lindbergh" you will find mention of what he saw, and heard, of our soldier's response to the early Japanese treatment of our military personnel. It might have some bearing on the lack of Japanese POW's. <br /><br />May also explain, to some extent, why so many of our men never talked about combat in the Pacific. I can't say I've ever heard of similar treatment of German troops. What Lindbergh talked about, I have only seen a very few, very brief, indirect mentions in all the books I've read in about 50 years of looking at that war. <br /><br />Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-38365350125108031462014-04-25T07:15:56.876-05:002014-04-25T07:15:56.876-05:00This is off topic but do an internet search on ...This is off topic but do an internet search on 'Japan Unit 731' and prepare to be astonished, I knew the Japanese WWII military had atrocities but I was totally floored to see this one - Yikes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-55554561035679525442014-04-24T11:00:07.923-05:002014-04-24T11:00:07.923-05:00Another Good book that illustrates the Training le...Another Good book that illustrates the Training levels and Planning for the Blitz thru Pacific in 1942 is Martin caidins 'The Ragged,Rugged Warriors'Ed-Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727359733185669482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-10431202650028816992014-04-24T07:30:24.141-05:002014-04-24T07:30:24.141-05:00Have you read Saburu Sakai's book "Samura...Have you read Saburu Sakai's book "Samurai!"?
