According to Laura Hillenbrand, in her book, “Unbroken,” one to two percent of U.S. GIs perished in Nazi and Italian POW camps, and 25 percent of U.S. GIs perished in Japanese POW camps. I find it curious: While neither Germany, nor Japan, should be forever chastised for their World War II past, why are the Nazis so frequently trotted out as the example of all things evil? We should share the infamy and let a few other past bad examples get some play.
