. *Broadcast on Abema on August 18, 2021 ◆Contents The Battle of Iwo Jima is said to have been the most brutal battle of the Pacific War. In 1944, Toyoshima Genichi, who was injured in an attack by the US military, was admitted to a hospital in a cave on Iwo Jima. He needed immediate surgery, but without any equipment or medicine, his condition worsened, and he prepared to commit suicide. In the midst of all this, he was suddenly called by his superior officer, who told him, "Tomorrow, a plane will come from the mainland, so get on that and go home. It's an order from above." There were many patients on the island, but Toyoshima was the only one to get on the plane. Why was he the only one? And who was the superior officer who ordered him to return? A 100-year-old former Japanese soldier tells the first time of the secret story that took place before the suicide attack on Iwo Jima. ◆Other works here Prosecutor arrested just before "slush fund accusation"...to silence him?
