Hiroo Onoda, the Solider Who Kept Fighting WWII | Case File #203
Manage episode 447750573 series 3448593
Who is Hiroo Onoda? He was a second lieutenant in the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2. But instead of ending his fight following Japan’s surrender, he kept on fighting for 29 years after the war had ended. And throughout those three decades, he initiated guerilla warfare against a Philippine island, killing up to 30 civilians in the process over a war that was already over.
