REALITY - "We came across the bodies of two native women, pegged out on an earthen mound. They had been "raped to death" by Japanese soldiers. Then we found a dead American soldier who had stakes driven through each shoulder and his hands cut off. As we moved away again, one of my Corporals said to me 'No more prisoners'...and I agreed with him.
The necessity for capturing them had ceased to worry anyone. Nippo soldiers were just so much machine-gun practice. Too many of our soldiers were tied up guarding them...It also didn't encourage the rest to surrender when they heard of their buddies being marched out on the flying field and machine-guns turned loose on them." - Diary entry of an Australian soldier, Papua New Guinea, 1943. #reality #ww2 #noweakshit #zerofoxtrot #stayzero
