I really feel sorry for you, hearing how
your hands get cold and cracked because of
the cold weather and water in winter.
Whenever you use water, make sure you
dry your hands and then rub them until
they get warm.
(December 11, 1944)
This letter was written by Kuribayashi
Tadamichi to his wife. He was a commander
on Iwoto, a battlefield during World War II.
He wrote many letters to her from there.
Iwoto is a small flat island that lies 1,250
km south of Tokyo. One of the hardest
battles between Japan and the US was fought
there. The island was a very important place
for both the US and Japan. For Japan, it was
the last base to protect the mainland.
Twenty thousand Japanese soldiers fought in the battle
on Iwoto, while on the American side there were 60,000
soldiers. The American side was sure that the Japanese side
would be beaten within five days. Contrary to this
expectation, the battle continued for over one month.
Kuribayashi was leading the Japanese side. His mission
was to delay the US attacks on the Japanese mainland for as
long as possible. Losing Iwoto meant losing the lives of
many people on the mainland. To complete his mission, he
was prepared to die on Iwoto with his soldiers.
He analyzed the geographical features of Iwoto carefully.
Then he decided to fight against the US by hiding
underground. He believed that his strategy would decrease
the loss of Japanese soldiers and make the war longer.
To carry out Kuribayashi's plan, his soldiers needed to dig
into the ground and make a network of 500 underground
shelters. Digging there was extremely difficult. The soldiers
suffered from unbearable heat of up to 60°C as well as
sulfur gas. Moreover, they could only have one bottle of
water a day. However hard the work was, Kuribayashi never
stopped.
Although Kuribayashi was very strict, he had another side
too. He encouraged his soldiers to write letters to their
families. The following is one of them.
Whenever I can relax a little in the evening, I imagine
our children being very hungry and shoveling their meals
into their mouths. I sometimes feel like I am sitting in front
of Nobu and have an impulse to talk to her.
