たばこの気持ち

台湾籍日本人21万人が太平洋戦争🪖に従軍し、少なくても3万人が戦死した----。

久しぶりにTBS「解放区」を見ました。

呉正男さんは、横浜市在住の96歳。終戦後、ソ連軍に捕まりカザフスタンに送られ、2年間に及ぶ強制労働に従事したのです。

私は台湾で、高砂族から日本兵として従軍し、戦死した兵士の慰霊碑を訪ねたことがあります。

今回の放送では、呉さんの他に生存している台湾出身兵士のインタビューが紹介されました。

う〜ん、世の中には知らないことが多すぎると、私は再認識させられたのです。

210,000 Japanese of Taiwanese nationality served in the Pacific War🪖 and at least 30,000 were killed in action. ----

I am watching TBS "Liberation Ward" for the first time in a while. Mr. Masao Wu is 96 years old and lives in Yokohama. After the war ended, he was captured by the Soviet army and sent to Kazakhstan, where he was engaged in forced labor for two years.

I have visited the cenotaph in Taiwan for soldiers from the Takasago tribe who served and died in the war as Japanese soldiers.

In this broadcast, interviews with other surviving Taiwanese soldiers from Taiwan were introduced in addition to Mr. Wu.

Hmmm, I was reminded that there are so many things in this world that we do not know.
