When General Jonathan Wainwright and 33 other Allied officers were held at Liaoyuan Prisoner of War Camp in Jilin province in 1944 and 1945, the regime was unremittingly harsh.
Japanese officers gave every POW a piece of paper detailing the positions of everything in their rooms, and any infringements were punished.
The POWS were given corn porridge for breakfast and lunch every day, and dinner always consisted of vegetables and bean curd.
