Ting Haiyong is telling the story of three Taiwanese prisoner-of-war monitors.

You may have heard of Taiwanese Japanese soldiers, who were recruited as soldiers by the Japanese colonial government that controlled Taiwan during World War II.In our crew, there are many people whose grandparents or grandparents have served as Taiwanese Japanese soldiers. According to statistics, from 1937 to 1945, a total of more than 200,000 young people in Taiwan became Taiwanese Japanese soldiers and went to the battlefield.Our protagonists are a group of people with a special status among these Taiwanese Japanese soldiers - military dependents. There are about 120,000 people. They are employed by the military as irregular soldiers and engage in non-combat and auxiliary military work during the war.people.

Some people say that military husbands are military husbands, and the term military husbands are often mentioned in the mouths of elders. Some people even sing the praises of れの军夫 (a wartime adaptation of the propaganda song "Rainy Night Flower"). In fact, the terms military husbands and military dependents may not necessarily be the same.Mixed terms, military personnel are divided into many levels, including engineers engaged in weapons development and military judges engaged in legal work. These are military personnel with higher professionalism and higher ranks, mostly held by Japanese; but there are also those engaged in laborMilitary dependents with lower jobs and ranks, such as porters, factory technicians, growing food, monitoring prisoners of war, and other labor jobs that are not directly engaged in war activities. Generally speaking, the military husbands referred to by elders mostly refer to this category.

Monitoring prisoners of war?Isn't that a soldier's job?How could it be a job for military dependents?Since Japan attacked Pearl Harbor at the end of 1941 and officially started war with the United States and its Allies, the Japanese army has been overwhelming and has occupied almost half of the Pacific Ocean within half a year. Except for China, the entire Southeast Asia, including the Southeast Peninsula, Borneo, New Guinea, and Indonesia, has almost become aJapan's sphere of influence captured a large number of Allied troops along the way, including the US Army, the British Army and the Australian Army. Therefore, Japan set up many prisoner camps, that is, prisoner-of-war camps in Southeast Asia to hold these Allied prisoners of war.

Although it has been victorious, Japan is after all an island country with insufficient manpower. The rapid expansion of its territory has also caused the problem of insufficient military resources. Facing the United States, a new world factory with a seemingly endless supply of soldiers and weapons, Japan began to accelerate the mobilization of colonial forces.Manpower, all began to recruit young people into the army on a large scale from this time.As Japan's southern base, Taiwan naturally had a large number of young military personnel sent to Nanyang. Many of them were assigned to prisoner-of-war camps to assist the Japanese army in guarding the imprisoned Allied prisoners of war. These people were called TaiwanesePOW monitor.

If it was really as simple as supervising prisoners of war, as their job titles suggested, then each of them should have been able to retire safely and return to Taiwan after the war. However, many Taiwanese prisoner-of-war monitors died in a foreign land at the end of the war and could never return.Home, some people are lucky enough to come back, but never mention what happened there throughout their lives.

Those stories that could not be told in the past are the stories that Haiyong listens to now.
