WWII in the Pacific

I enjoyed this episode, but I have one issue. The historian stated that by the end of the war, Japanese troops were routinely fighting to the death. I think he meant to say the Japanese were fighting to the death throughout the war, which made the experience of fighting them so different from any other war. All of the major memoirs of WWII stated this horrifying fact.

Cady listens ,

Fantastic!

A good listen- I like that it covers topics not often discussed on msnbc or cnn

Mind-stroll ,

Senator from RI !!!
