[Mark in Rochester]

A little OT bonus


Minoru Wada was an Imperial Japanese Army officer who was taken prisoner on Mindanao by the members of U.S. Marine Corps, in 1945. He provided Marine bomber crews with vital intelligence, and led the aircraft in a highly successful attack on the headquarters of the Japanese 100th Division. He was motivated by a desire to minimize the loss of life through aiding to effect a swift end to the Pacific War.
