Transferred to Ofuna Prisoner Camp (24 Aug 1943 Jahr – 30 Sept 1944 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

"The Japanese were abundantly clear about one thing. In this secret place, they could, and did, do anything they wanted to their captives, and no one would ever know. They stressed that they did not guarantee that captives would survive Ofuna. “They can kill you here,” Louie was told. “No one knows you’re alive.” (Hillebrand, Ch 19). Here at Ofuna the guards were known to be military washouts, generally unintelligent and definitely sadistic. Louie's strength was further tested by the conditions and relentless beatings of his captors. The "kill-all" orders at Ofuna were well known by the prisoners, if the Japanese were to be overtaken all prisoners were to be killed.
