| At random: The first Japanese prisoner of war captured by the Americans was Kazuo Sakamaki, an ensign in the Imperial Japanese Navy. He was captured on the morning of December 7, 1941. Sakamaki had set an explosive charge to destroy his disabled submarine, which had been trapped on Waimanalo Beach. When the explosives failed to go off, he swam to the bottom of the submarine to investigate the cause of the failure and became unconscious due to a lack of oxygen. Sakamaki was found by a Hawaiian soldier, David Akui, and was taken into military custody. When he awoke, he found himself in a hospital under American armed guard. After the war he returned to Japan and found work with the Toyota Motor Corporation before retiring in 1987. Sakamaki died on November 29, 1999, aged 81. |

He's from Oxnard not LA! BB Going Deep and quiet! Since my house is 51.3 miles from Dodger Stadium, I should be a San Freakcisco Giants fan? BTW, that's closer than some parts of the city of Los Angeles itself. Edited by JrKrup, Skimmer 2010-09-08 9:25 PM | ||
