Shore as hell it did happen. My stepmother was a survivor of that shindig.
We had 2 guys who survived that little field trip in the town I grew up in. One was our elementary art teacher. He started talking about it only in his last few years. The other died in his middle years and rarely spoke about it.

About 15 years ago, my stepmother showed me a ragdoll her mother had made for her in the prison camp. She was about three years old when they were captured. Her father was a Baptist missionary and he died of appendicitis some time after they were taken prisoner. She was five or six when they were liberated. She told me it took several years for her to break the habit of licking her plate clean after meals. I urged her to write down all she could remember about the experience, but she said she wouldn't ever do that. She never explained why, but I figure that she just didn't want to relive it. She passed about eight years ago.
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
