He would never talk about it before he died. I have the citation from Reagan from when they finally recognized them. I wish I knew more about it but can’t find any more info.

Thanks for the information. But I don’t think these two brothers are related to us.

This is very upsetting to me; was he experimented on by Unit 731? The American and Filipino troops who were abandoned in the Pacific deserved better, when they were abused by the Japanese as POWs. To not even be remembered by the public, and even in school history books they were left out. Something isn’t right here! The more I find out about this, the angrier I get. And the way the Japanese act like victims of the atomic bomb when they committed so many atrocities, it is just very upsetting. Thank you for writing this article. The truth must be told.
