Actually Nanking wasn't much different from the rest of Japanese occupied
China, Korea and other areas. Recall that the Japanese used Chinese
Prisoners of War for bayonet practice for their troops. Japanese troops
were required to kill prisoners of war to get them ready for killing on the
battlefront. Japanese Army Officers were required to behead Chinese
Prisoners of War to toughen them up.


Until the 1970's when it was finally discontinued, the South Koreans
had a postage stamp dipicting a Japanese soldier tossing an Korean
infant up in the air and ctaching it on his bayonnet.
