Search for Chichijima and Japan and Canabalism
In his book Flyboys: A True Story of Courage, James Bradley details several instances of cannibalism of World War II Allied prisoners by their Japanese captors. The author claims that this included not only ritual cannibalization of the livers of freshly-killed prisoners, but also the cannibalization-for-sustenance of living prisoners over the course of several days, amputating limbs only as needed to keep the meat fresh
Check out the ritualistic canibalism practiced on American PoWs shot down and captured on Chichijima in the Bonins in 1944-45. Our former president, Bush the Elder, was almost a victim. This is all exceedingly well documented with plenty of witnesses. They killed the airmen, cut out their livers, cut the livers into tiny pieces and sauteed them. The Japanese officer responsible for this then served the sauteed liver delicacies to his fellow officers in the believe that they would inherit the soul and courage of the enemy. There is loads of trial testimony on this, Michael, plus a quite recent book. The guilty parties were tried on Guam by the U.S. Navy on the orders of Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz.
