That was the one in Harbin, IIRC. They used an old sawmill for the facility and called the Chinese prisoners "logs." One of the great travesties of WWII is that we totally let Japan skate for their atrocities against allied POW's. We should have publicly tried and executed Hirohito and his whole family. Because MacArthur wanted to let them skate, to this day Japan teaches in its schools that they were the victim, not the aggressor, in WWII. I doubt any school kids there know anything about Unit 731, the Rape of Nanking or the Bataan Death March.
