I just stumbled upon this post after a busy few days of hurricane detail. Thanks for the resource Bothersome, especially the one on WWII electronic warfare. It happens to be my current state of interest and it's always good to have another source to glean information from, especially some of the smaller details that might be absent from another sounce.
I've been able to use various sources to extrapolate some basic standards about Japanese capabilities, not to mention that which they were clearly capable or incapable of. I've also come to appreciate my reservations about the post-war interrogations of Japanese military personnel. In retrospect, it was not possible at that time for the interrogators to understand the sacred "death before shame or dishonor" credo that so deeply permeated the Japanese people. Put that together with their "bushido" tendency to overexaggerate their accomplishments/exploits and you could see how easy it would be for their defeated personnel to lie or embellish upon interrogation. They lied to themselves throughout the war, so why should they be any different toward their captors? Great find. ![]() ![]()
