    It is, of course, humanly, to give the remains of soldiers to the other side, because the Russians are not barbarians, as they want to present us in the West.

      but it seems to me a very subtle psychological move, a sort of subtext ... wink still say you don’t want the remains ... ??? feel

        I think the expedition members did not have any such thoughts, just elementary respect for the fallen soldiers.

      It's no good reasoning like that. You, I think, would not like the words similar to yours about our Warriors from the lips of a German or a Pole. They don’t fight against the dead.

      Do not be compared to some Balts who shout about how they want to get rid of everything Soviet. I can also recall that almost all the infrastructure on the islands was built by the Japanese

    Even nature itself demonstrates to our neighbors - Live in peace and raise children! Watch and do not repeat the mistakes of past generations !!! After all, we are not animals, but people !!!

    How many times scolded for vices
    Cruelty, anger, intrigues, squabbles ...
    They called for mercy of people
    Live in peace and raise children!
    But often their anger is full of souls,
    Although not animals, and not the children of Satan!


    Once a handsome lion, king of beasts
    Decided that he is better and smarter than everyone!
    He is in a sunny meadow, openly
    Volchar, a gray bandit,
    Fox, red cheat
    Gathered in the forest for an urgent party ...


    “I appeal to you brothers, sisters!
    (My fangs and teeth are sharp)
    I am the king and I am your lord!
    I can give you advice one-
    So as not to lose my grace
    Share everything in fairness! ”
    It’s not appropriate to argue with the king,
    It’s more expensive, since the strength is small.


    A lion dragged a spotted calf,
    Though old, there is still strength.
    The gray wolf pulled up a ram,
    He knows a lot about this.
    The fox pulled a rooster
    The soulfuls of a bird offal ...



    "Well, that swallowing saliva is useless,
    Delhi according to conscience ... ”- the lion said to the wolf.

    "Oh, wise lion, bestial king-
    Your calf, my sovereign!
    I carried a ram on my back,
    He is my breakfast, I must get it!
    And the red-haired beast is a cock.
    But then the wolf's gaze went out ...

    Flashing fangs, the lion roared:
    "Bandit, traitor, how dare
    The laws of the jungle break
    Do not respect the king of animals!? "-
    From anger, panting, the lion said
    And tore to shreds of a wolf ...

    He looks towards the fox: -
    "Let's continue the" red-haired "conversation with you ..."
    “My King, my God, my Lord!
    There is a fair way and it is one.
    I offer you a calf for breakfast
    Kings need strength, I suppose !?
    This is a great lunch from a lamb,
    Be glorified for centuries and live hundreds of years!
    And the cockerel, for your future dream,
    The hand of all the givers would not be impoverished! ”

    From the words of such a king picked up,
    He smiled, brightened ...
    "I like your cheat offer,
    Where did you learn this important teaching?
    Who suggested what life is good for? ”
    The fox sighed: "Poor wolf!"

    Peace to your home !!!

        These are NOT SAMURAI, these are just Japanese soldiers, in the distant past peasants and workers ... Here is a real samurai
        It’s just that the ritual was not completely performed, there wasn’t a comrade nearby who would have taken his head off at the right moment ... So, these are the samurai

    That's right. The soldier should be buried in his homeland, and the Kuril Islands are not their homeland, so even though it's late, but home. You can still give them a thick file of protest notes that they sent us for 70 years, let them re-read this chronicle from a quiet sadness. hi

    At one time, he worked in the Magadan region ... Not in a camp, not in the GULAG, as is now commonly believed and where they are going to exile the so-called. "National Guard", where there are fewer "camps" than in the Moscow region and the Sverdlovsk region, just in the Magadan region. So, my wife worked as the director of the House of Pioneers, and there were teams of young pathfinders. Back then, back in the USSR ... After the Second World War, brown coal was mined in the Khasynsky District, and for its delivery to Magadan through the village of Stekolny, a "narrow-gauge railway" was built with casting on rails "Head of I.V. Stalin. 1952" So, energetic trackers found buckles from the belts of Soviet prisoners and buckles with the emblem of the "rising sun" in the collapsed slopes of the "narrow-gauge railroad" ... Japanese prisoners of war also worked there. They were dying, apparently on an equal footing ... The results of history, let's not be "bad" about the dead ..., "Khasyntsy" did not lie to all the griefs!

          It would seem ... And where does the narrow-gauge railway come from in Kolyma ?! Ore, coal, timber. In the Kuril Islands - the supply of ammunition to the coastal batteries ... "King Cobra" does not raise questions ?! In 1988, in the Seimchansky District of the Magadan Region, they found the remains of an American fighter (I don’t remember the make and model now), it’s just that the route of the 1st Air Ferry Division from Alaska ran there, the veterans of which, by the way, are still not recognized as WWII veterans ...
