The Japs made the Nazis look like sissy boys. I’ve never met an American WWII vet who fought in the Pacific theater that had anything but vitriol for the Japanese soldier, and wouldn’t have killed twice as many if they’d had the chance.

That has ben my experience too. One former ex- Marine coworker waa scout/ sniper in the First Marine Division and when speaking of the war and killing Japs the years would fall away from him and he would get excited and animated.
He told me of some incidents on Guadalcanal that I had read about but he had more details.
