the

said.
Bamboo

rice,

everything
from
latrines
to
railroad
bridges,
was
made
with
bamboo.

1943
the

was
completed

of
Japanese
troops.
"Perhaps
the
greatest
tragedy
at
the
war,"
Dr.
Black
said,
"was
when
allied
planes
bombed
us
due
to
Japanese
placing
our
camps
near
military
objectives.
Bombers
from
allied
aircraft
ran
casualties
and
deaths
to
over
800."
Dr.
Black
said
that

20
