Quote:He Escaped Death as a Kamikaze Pilot. 70 Years Later, He Told His Story.
Kazuo Odachi is one of the last living members of a group never meant to survive. He wants to remind Japan that before its modern success came the sacrifices of the young pilots who gave their lives.
What is the Napoleon reference?
And isn't modern Japan's success based on Japan losing the war? I guess a kamikaze pilot surviving contributes to Japan losing, so...he's a hero...? Kinda?
