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.

This week’s first track is a Bill Withers song “Lean on Me” performed by the Playing for Change musicians and singers. The second selection is from the movie “The Coalminers Daughter” (1980) in which actress Sissy Spacek played the country singer Loretta Lynn. Sissy sang all the tracks in this bio-pic herself and her singing voice is uncannily like that of Loretta.
