    Hiroo Onoda is legendary in all of Asia. I remember learning about him in class as a real-life example of not only what propaganda can do to a person, but also the grit and tenacity that could result. He was a man who truly loved his country and believed in its mission. The fact that he was able to accept the war had ended at all is telling in how much of his mental faculties he retained during those decades of living in the jungle. Did he have moments of madness? Of course. Was he a mad man? No. Thank you for being so respectful in your telling of his story.

    Second Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda's story was told to me by my grandpa who fought in the Pacific Theater against the Japanese. Onoda was born in the same year as my grandpa. After the end of WWII, there were MANY Japanese soldiers were still in the jungles of various islands to carry out ambushes. Most didn't last a few months: either killed or captured or surrendered, but grandpa told me about Onoda and how he was "still out there". He has a cave stocked with plenty of ammunition, food, equipment and all he needed to survive as long as the Japanese thought he would need (many of the ambush soldiers were tied or chained to their positions to keep them near their caves). This story about Onoda was something told around a campfire when on a fishing trip. Grandpa told of these guerrilla ambush fighters out in the jungles... and it was rumored ONE was still out there!

    After returning to Japan, he was approached to write a book. A ghostwriter was hired, and during their collaboration, he confided that he was aware Japan had lost the war. It's rumored that he was responsible for the deaths of over 30 local individuals (After the war is over), prompting a pursuit by the authorities. This may explain his inability to return. Allegedly, the Japanese government had to provide financial assistance to the Philippines to facilitate his return to Japan and avoid murder charges.

    He had many, many opportunities to test reality, all of which he rejected. He was as honorable as the insurrectionists on 1/6. He had MANY opportunities to test reality, all of which he rejected. There is nothing honorable in persistently embracing a delusional disorder to preserve a self-image as a hero. Holocaust deniers, moon-landing deniers, and flat-earthers also have delusional disorder, and they and their followers also consider them heroes.
