Currently reading a biography of Gen. Curtis Lemay. During WWII approximately 15 million Chinese, Koreans, and Filipinos were killed by the Japanese. Quite a few more than Jews killed by the Germans. Why no remembrance in the US? I’m pretty sure there are more Chinese in the US than Jews

Also American POWs were treated far better by the Germans. Book says 1% of POWs died in prison camps run by the Germans vs 36% in camps run by the Japs

Just wondering

We don’t have them here, but go anywhere in the western Pacific and you’ll find scars from WWII. People over there LOATHE the Japanese.

Unit 731 has documented obscenities, like vivisections of pregnant women. The Imperial Army routinely tortured and executed POWs. The Japanese were so, so much worse than the Germans.
