Another example of the Japanese Army's mistreatment of prisoners comes from the infamous building of the Burma Railway that involved as many as 250,000 local civilians and allied prisoners constructing over 250 miles of narrow gauge railway in tropical heat across Japanese-occupied Burma in little over a year between 1942 and 1943 that resulted in the deaths of nearly 100,000 men from dysentery, beatings, beheading, exhaustion, and starvation.
Juan NaulaNARRATOR
