Wellll lookie there. Nice link. I remember reading about 2nd Lt. Hiroo Onada. I just read the link and my recollection matches that he at least at some point knew the war was over and refused to come out of the jungle until someone was able to get his commanding officer to meet him in person and relieve him of his duty. (lucky he was still alive).

The other guy, Private Teruo Nakamura, hadn't heard of him. Interesting wiki.

Thanks.
