If you are of a certain age, like me, you may have had the good fortune to have teachers liek me, who had friends and bothers that had the misfortune to fall into Japanese hands during the war. So you got interesting classes in history, or in biology when the subject was just how light the human body can become after long periods of starvation. And still not as bad as some Australians had it. |

The Japanese military of WWII were simply barbarians. |

Out of curiosity…who authorizes histories of the various wars? |

Good question. You should ask them. One of their stated purposes was to call out myths that have been taken as fact and to tell what happened warts and all. That may be what they mean by unauthorized. |
