I've never heard the claim. Wasn't there a WWII Japanese soldeir from New Zealand called Okuzaki Kenzo, the so-called "Tenno Terrorist," who claimed that his superiors killed some of his unit buddies, and there were rumours of cannibalism surrounding him ?Loyalist said:thank you for your input, but has anyone heard of these claims? I have heard that a japanese soldier from WWII (one who did not surrender untill years after, and terrorized a phillipino island.) Has been going around making statements to this effect.
note: "Naked Army" was supposedly a mistranlsation of ツ皇ナ坦 'Imperial Army' by some strange coincindence, and not due to some promotion gimmick.After the biographical introduction, the book sets up both the film's broad and specific historical context, beginning with Japan's initial military involvement with Manchuria in 1931 and the Sino-Japanese war of 1937, and Japan's eventual fall from victory to shattering defeat. At the more local level, we learn that Okuzaki was among the 30 survivors of the more than 1000 members of the 36th Engineering Corps. Along with Okuzaki, 10 other survivors appear in Naked, which makes Naked an important testimony to a moment in Japanese military history when moral was low and hope of winning vanquished.
