Скачать или смотреть A Nisei U.s. Interpreter Found A Japanese Pow Nurse Roped To A Post. The Sign Said “Traitor”

“They tied her to a post and called her a traitor — but what happened next no one expected.”
In September 1945, deep in the jungles of the Philippines, a Nisei U.S. Army interpreter discovered a Japanese nurse — a female POW in World War II — bound and abandoned by her own unit. Around her neck hung a sign: “Uragirimono.” Traitor.

She had committed no crime — only mercy. In the final days of the war, she had treated American wounded. For that, she was condemned.

This true story unearths a forgotten moment of grace amid ruin — where two former enemies, both outcasts in their own way, found a bridge through language, water, and quiet defiance. It is a story not of battles, but of survival and empathy. A story of wartime women who chose compassion when the world demanded cruelty.
