Description
Mr. Golden describes having no animosity towards the people of Japan in general. He does, however, harbor grievances against those who executed four North Point escapees, and those who denied prisoners access to Red Cross parcels and mail from home.
Transcription
I never bore any animosity towards the Japanese people as such, then or now. I bear deep animosity towards the people whoever they are, who were responsible for executing the four Winnipeg Grenadiers. I bear animosity towards the very senior people either civil or military who made the decision not to allow the Red Cross to provide us with food and medicine, who took the decision that free flow of mail was not something that was important and things like that so I resent all that but I have no animosity towards the Japanese people as such. They were caught up in something just as a lot of other people were. As I say, I have grievances against individuals, not against the country.
