...after the war ended and ... was taken home, she told no one what had happened to her. She said she felt ashamed, afraid and isolated. She had no idea that her ordeal had been shared by thousands of other young women at dozens of military “comfort stations” throughout the Pacific. Unable to confide in her family, she remained single and childless for life.

But in 1991, when another comfort woman(Kim Hak Sun) broke a half-century of silence, ... realized that she had not been alone. She registered with the government and traveled to the base where she had been held, accompanied by Japanese historians. She was able to learn the fate of crucial individuals, including a Japanese military officer who took pity on her and was later killed in combat. And finally, she began to talk.

>Japanese claim that Dutch missionary wives captured in the East Indies suddenly wanted to become prostitutes for Japanese soldiers.

This is total bullshit. Even extreme Japanese right wings agree that those abductions in war zone were rape. Thoese who abducted duch were even excuted by Japanese officers.

There is also a book on comfort women based on military records, which seems quite factual, unemotional and journalistic.

Japanese view on comfort women mostly correspond with war time records by allies, why did they need to distort fact in favor of Japan?
