3/2/2023 0 Comments Letters from iwo jima![]() ![]() Kuribayashi belongs behind a desk, not fighting a war.This is ridiculous, why waste time digging all these tunnels? They are all going to die anyway!.The Fleet of Americans have left from Saipan.We earnestly hope you will fight honorably and die for your country. We regret that we are unable to send reinforcements to Iwo at this time. ![]() Where are you, American tanks? Come and get me!.I'll throw myself under a tank, I'll destroy one of their machines! You men are now under command of Lieutenant Colonel Nishi. I won't go back, I've had enough of cave fighting.We will take back Suribachi, with or without Kuribayashi.Don't hide here like rats, come out of your caves and attack!.It was your duty to hold your position until death, you should have died with your fellow troop members.(sadly) Let this be a lesson to anyone else who wants to surrender.It has been a great honor to serve under you.I'm tired of sharing this cave with all of you, I'm a one-man show from now on.If you want my honest opinion, General, the best thing to do would be to sink this island to the bottom of the sea.Damn this island! The Americans can have it.He studied the Americans, so he knows how to beat them.Kashiwara died of honorable dysentery.There are rumors about his womanizing.But there are no women left to woo.This is the hole that we will fight and die in. We can die here, or we can continue fighting.It's got to be a joke! Thank you, God! I take back what I said! ![]()
