【本間雅晴 全史】マッカーサーを破った将軍は、なぜ銃殺されたのか｜英国を愛し詩を書いた男の悲劇と、バターン死の行進、そして妻の証言｜AIフルカラー

At the start of the Pacific War, there was a Japanese general who conquered the Philippines in just six months, and drove MacArthur himself from the islands. His name was Masaharu Homma. He lived in Britain for eight years, wrote poetry in English, and was a gentle general beloved by his subordinates. But after the war, he was held responsible for the Bataan Death March and put on trial at a military court in Manila. And, at the end of a trial widely considered to be retaliation by the defeated General MacArthur, he was executed by firing squad on April 3, 1946, at the age of 59. In court, his wife Fujiko declared simply that she was still proud to be Masaharu Homma's wife. Why did the general who loved Britain and wrote poetry have to die?
