THE PRISONERS OF KEMPEI TAI: JAMES GREEN

The prisoners of Kempei Tai were not considered POWs but war criminals because of their part in the horrific fire bombing of Japan. Sergeant Jim Green's B-29 was shot down on his very first mission. During his nearly four month long captivity, Green was bayoneted, beaten, and nearly starved to death before being liberated after the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
