  • World War Ii in the Philippines
    WORLD WAR II IN THE PHILIPPINES The Legacy of Two Nations©2016 Copyright 2016 by C. Gaerlan, Bataan Legacy Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. World War II in the Philippines The Legacy of Two Nations©2016 By Bataan Legacy Historical Society Several hours after the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the Philippines, a colony of the United States from 1898 to 1946, was attacked by the Empire of Japan. During the next four years, thou- sands of Filipino and American soldiers died. The entire Philippine nation was ravaged and its capital Ma- nila, once called the Pearl of the Orient, became the second most devastated city during World War II after Warsaw, Poland. Approximately one million civilians perished. Despite so much sacrifice and devastation, on February 20, 1946, just five months after the war ended, the First Supplemental Surplus Appropriation Rescission Act was passed by U.S. Congress which deemed the service of the Filipino soldiers as inactive, making them ineligible for benefits under the G.I. Bill of Rights. To this day, these rights have not been fully -restored and a majority have died without seeing justice. But on July 14, 2016, this mostly forgotten part of U.S. history was brought back to life when the California State Board of Education approved the inclusion of World War II in the Philippines in the revised history curriculum framework for the state. This seminal part of WWII history is now included in the Grade 11 U.S. history (Chapter 16) curriculum framework. The approval is the culmination of many years of hard work from the Filipino community with the support of different organizations across the country.

  • Post-World War II British 'Hell-Ship' Trials in Singapore
    Post-World War II British ‘Hell-ship’ Trials in Singapore Omissions and the Attribution of Responsibility CheahWui Ling* Downloaded from Abstract At the end of World War II, the Allied Powers tried numerous Japanese defendants in locally based war crime trials across Asia. This article examines a particular set of jicj.oxfordjournals.org British trials conducted in Singapore against Japanese defendants accused of POW abuse onboard Japanese ‘hell-ships’. These cases address issues of omission and attribution, which continue to be relevant and much debated. First, the defendants were held reponsible for failures to act rather than for any positive acts of cruelty. Second, these cases considered different arguments linking the mid-ranking defen- dants to the crimes of POW ill-treatment. This article will analyse the ‘hell-ship’ by guest on September 24, 2010 cases against the prism of contemporary jurisprudence with the aim of identifying possible lessons as we continue to deal with issues of omissions and attribution in international criminal law today. 1. Introduction As the Japanese army made its way across South-east Asia during World War II (WWII), it left in its wake the massacre and summary execution of civilians and enemy soldiers. Those taken alive by the Japanese military suffered an equally terrifying fate. Prisoners of war (POWs) and civilian detainees were tor- tured and starved in camps, herded into ‘death marches’, crammed into the holds of unmarked prison ships, and forced to work under inhumane condi- tions for the benefit for the Japanese military. POWs held by the German * Assistant Professor of Law, Singapore National University Faculty of Law.

  • USS Paddle: Sinking American POWS by Eugene A
    USS Paddle: Sinking American POWS by Eugene A. Mazza I believe that there were four stages that the prisoners were exposed to. The first stage is the capture or surrender of the person or persons. The second stage is the treatment of the men and women while in a Japanese prison or work camp. The third stage is the transfer by forced march or transport to other camps or to the Japanese homeland. The fourth and final stage is the rescue and return to the American way of life. The history of the first three stages is well covered by many books. I concentrated on three. WITH ONLY THE WILL TO LIVE, edited by Robert S. LaPorte, Ronald E. Marcello and Richard L. Himmell; PRISONERS OF THE JAPANESE by Gavan Daws; and The Shinyo Maru Survivors Reunion, 7 September 1998 at San Antonio,Texas Booklet. These books describe the life of the prisoners and the brutal treatment, as they were used as slave labor, and their constant battle with hunger and disease. I will cover very little of this history. Stage 3, the transportation of the prisoners, from camp to camp and to Japan via Japanese transports, is well covered by the book Death on the HELLSHIPS, by F. Michno and others.1 In the fourth stage, I will attempt to list the names and some history of the Prisoners of War that were on the Shinyo Maru, when the USS Paddle, SS 263 sunk the ship in 1944. Some of these men swam 3 or 4 miles to a nearby island and later were evacuated by the USS Narwhal, SS 167.

Ichiro Fujisaki spoke Saturday in San Antonio at the final scheduled reunion of the American Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor, its 64th annual convention, the San Antonio Express-News reported. Fujisakis apology was welcomed by some of the 73 surviving Bataan Death March veterans of the Army and former Army Air Corps members in attendance. But others criticized it, saying it was long overdue, not aimed directly at Americans and didn’t seem to come from the Japanese government as a whole. In 1942, Japanese captors marched about 78,000 prisoners of war -- 12,000 Americans and 66,000 Filipinos -- for six days on the Bataan Peninsula on the Philippine island of Luzon to a prisoner-of-war camp.
