(full title) I hate these classes but you’re last of the 29th Division coming down from Mt. Mataguac to surrender to the Americans.
While doing so, You and 12 other Servicemen begin to sing "I hate these classes." while the long march is still ahead of you.
Once you finally reach the Americans, Your squadron leader draws his Guntō, does a ceremonial salute to the sword, before finally giving it to the American Commander. You watch as he does his final bow to the Flag, before he steps back to your group.
"We're all huddled up, and waiting for the American photographer to take a picture of our ragtag group of survivors. Yankee scum, we weren't given an order to let us die in battle. Now... what purpose do we serve? We are no longer Soldiers to the Emperor, but now just simple men.
While we are being loaded back onto a ship. I turn back, and give the Island a final look before I burst into tears as I enter the ship".
- 2nd Lieutenant Osake Nakata
