In World War II, the Japanese army committed a lot of crimes and, of course, received due punishment after the war. During the war, although Japanese women did not go to the front as soldiers, many Japanese women dedicated themselves to the so-called "holy war".
Japan at World War II was a very peculiar country, countless Japanese women were brainwashed by the government, in their minds, for the sake of their husbands, for the sake of the country can do anything. There were even many women who volunteered to serve the Japanese army on the front lines. Of course, these women were mainly composed of prostitutes in the country, their families were poor, and in order to make ends meet, they came to the Japanese military camp, not only to earn money, but also to serve the emperor, which was a very honorable thing in their eyes.
A good example is Eiko Nakamura and her daughter, who are hailed by the Japanese as "militaristic wives." Nakamura Eiko's husband was an officer of the 106th Division of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army, and after being killed in the North China battlefield, Nakamura Eiko asked the Japanese military department to go to the front with his daughter and use his actual actions to "dedicate himself to the Japanese holy war."
The Japanese military department felt this action of theirs, calling her the "wife of the military country", and after coming to the front, Eiko Nakamura, as the "wife of the military country", also received preferential treatment, and she served Japanese military officers. During World War II, Japan was a patriarchal society, women were seen as the property of men, and it was normal for women to dedicate their bodies to their men. The sacrifice of soldiers for the emperor and the sacrifice of women for soldiers are considered an honor.
